For a month or longer, my body has essentially checked out on me. Fatigue has set in and instead of operating at 50% I seemed to have dropped to 25%. I began to despair, going back to thinking that I just couldn’t do this anymore. This is, of course, a goofy thought because when you are physically struggling you still have obligations and appointments. You just carry on because you have no other choice trying to maintain a positive outlook and keep your focus on trusting God.
A few weeks back, Cecil, a new twitter and blogger friend, asked me to do a guest post on his blog and I said yes. Ever since I have just been blank. I don’t know if it was the fatigue, the stuff going on in my family or warfare, but nothing was coming. I felt incapable, insecure and ill-equipped to impart wisdom to anyone. I had many thoughts on what to write about but everything just seemed so scattered.
So, I finally wrote a post for Cecil at www.godsgreenfields.com. He is hosting TWEETWEEK this week with entries from twitter friends. Please check his blog out and leave him some feedback.
My post is to appear on Wednesday, August 12th. I'm writing about God's Amazing Love. Even when we go through periods of what feels like setbacks, HE is faithful. Hope you enjoy. :)

Boy oh boy, I'll be coming back for that post. With my young kids and school about to start, the kids birhdays partys, all this summer too. Can't wait to read what you have to share!

Then when you go into you postings you add that code either above or below your signature. I'll try to help you out if you need it.

Bless you, Marci.
Marci I hope you feel better soon! Love the post title. I am going to repeat it over and over to myself today. ;-)
Hi There Marci,
Sorry, but this is the first time I really had a chance to read your blog and respond since you stopped by mine.
What a beautiful spirit you have in light of all that has happened. It is so like our awesome God to have such strong, sweet, encouraging children like you even in the midst of harder times - I am proud to be your sister-in- Christ! I will try to be back again - I don't always have the time I would like on the computer - But I will be visiting again for your encouragement and wisdom - you have a wonderful ministry here.
You are so right - He is ALWAYS faithful- I look back at all my 46 years and in every low time and faraway time from Him- He has always been there for me- carrying me -even when I wasn't giving Him a second look.
I pray with you for blessing and healing to you Marci!
-Your Sister in our awesome LORD
- Ruth (Narnianfan)
