Finding Strength

Every Saturday I pray with my best friend from South Carolina. It allows us to open up to each other about difficult issues and also to pray for one another. She has been such a blessing to me, especially during this difficult season. This weekend my anxiety and stress has been an all time high as I have recited the Serinity prayer. After all this time, my exhusband hired a lawyer as we are finally going to court in June. It is hard to hold back the emotions, despite my faith and strong and willing attitude. Often times, especially yesterday, my choices, have caught up with me. There were certain things I noticed about him early on and in our marriage (personality traits) I should have been more aware of. Its hard now because all I want is the best life for my daughter. Yesterday, as I taught my ESL job, I recited the prayer and have been trying to calm down my stress. I have to find strength in the lord during this time of uncertainity. I also have to continue to be strong. It is not an easy task right now.
