Stepping Out From the Shattered Place

The Lord has had me on an incredible journey. I finally feel like I am stepping out from the shattered place into Gods healing hands.

Wow, I have found the limit to my ability to handle and cope with people. I am an introvert and the past few weeks have been very busy dealing with more people then I have had to cope with in a long time.

I have spent so much of my time doing youth ministry being there and talking. (Which I was told this week that I should not be doing, I am not competent enough to do what it is I have been doing. This person will take their issues up with church leadership. I say have at it and where were you this summer?)I have a friend who is going through a rough time and I have talked and been there for her. I have maintained my normal weekly outings and now added Olympics to the mix.

I am drained wiped out exhausted sucked dry. I feel like the world has been whirling around me really loud and I just need silence.

The mere thought of extending myself outward is enough to make me cry. Even a close friend wore thin on me today. Really my skin is so thin he almost made me cry and he doesn't have a clue and if he did he wouldn't know why. Who knows if I will even remember myself after so peace.

All I really no for sure is I have found my limit in normal everyday life for coping with others without taking sometime to recharge.

I am going to take that time now to recharge and relax. The phone is going off, the AIM is going on ghost and YIM is going off, No email no nothing. So if you are looking for me and can't find me that is no accident. :-)
