Been going through a lot, my heart still bares threads. Torn to shreds. I start over yet, AGAIN!
I am not poor
I am not shabby
Jesus is my caddy
I am not inferior, or low quality
Jesus is superior
I can’t change the status of my life, I have a new name. Scratch wife
I am not subpar
I am not second rate
Jesus is written on my hearts slate
So when you look at my page, and see I am now Lisa M. O’Day, all is okay
I am back to write, because I know no matter the goings on in my life I am not substandard
I will rise above yet another test that God has given me, my plea is that I swim and not sink
Hey I know I am not too shabby, just another journey to walk. Not just talk
A new road road now unfolds, imperfect yep. God makes up the difference, substandard not with Jesus as my right hand man. For with Him I will stand
Time to swim, catch my breath. Tread the water I used to sink
Watch me take flight, as Eagles soar for Jesus I adore through all the tribulations. This will not get under my skin. Sink or Swim.
I choose swim until the very end…
Great courage – choose to swim!

We are adding more or more house projects. My husband painted the shed. Now he is going to work on part of the roof and the eaves. I’m cleaning the dust of 10 years in several of my China cabinet, curio… major cleaning this summer. Hope your painting is done!

Miriam we are no longer together. Long story, but for the better. Our marriage was not valid, which made the break easier. Lots of things I can’t talk about. I am okay, but back at starting over yet again. Praise God I am sober through all of this…❤❤❤

I’m sorry to hear that. It must be hard for you. I’m sure you tried, but there’s a limit of what you can do in a marriage. It takes two to work on a marriage. Don’t turn off your tears, cry as much as you want, cry until your tears dry. Cry your heart out. I wished we could talk, but I understand! Are you working?

You are saying your present love is no longer? I have missed you so much … I have been off grid, too. I’ve been sinking in my own boggy swamp … nothing like what you have shared, though. I have thought of you often and wondered why you were not writing. I have so many emails I haven’t answered … just stared at them. I am shocked at this sad news. But if anyone can swim out of this … you can. I know God has all manner of lifesavers He has and is sending to you … He won’t let you sink !! Grab onto Him with all you have … He is there … He knows everything … He loves you with an EVERLASTING love … He wants only the best for you, His child in whom He delights. I love you Lisa … jan
