The neighbors cat who decided she preferred to live here went into labor on Wednesday night. It was her first litter and she was more than a little scared. She started with full blown labor around 10:00 p.m. and it was quite interesting. I brought her inside and fixed her a birthing box and placed it beside me on the floor between my couch and coffee table. http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/TheAmazingAdventure/~3/VyV_SOgcGUg/new-life.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Blind Faith)5<div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/TheAmazingAdventure?a=VyV_SOgcGUg:t5E9jHvTAY0:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/TheAmazingAdventure?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/TheAmazingAdventure?a=VyV_SOgcGUg:t5E9jHvTAY0:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/TheAmazingAdventure?i=VyV_SOgcGUg:t5E9jHvTAY0:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/TheAmazingAdventure/~4/VyV_SOgcGUg" height="1" width="1"/>http://gegohaj.blogspot.com/2009/04/new-life.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4076299615846624397.post-8836533403904969206Mon, 13 Apr 2009 00:41:00 +00002009-04-12T19:54:22.548-05:00FamilyFaithCourage To ChangeMy hubby and I spent the day with his family and it was a REALLY good day.

Forgiveness does not imply endorsement for wrong doing. I don't forgive those who have harmed me because it's the right thing to do for anyone other than myself. For me, refusing to forgive, (or in some instances acknowledge that I was still holding a grudge) has resulted in excessive anger, bitterness, self-loathing and in some areas, hatred.

I woke this morning to the reality that there is only one entity that I need bother with pleasing and that's God. I just need to concentrate on what's right in front of me and nothing else. God loves me just as I am.

Ask God to do what is right. When God doesn't do what we want, it's not easy. Never has been. Never will be.
