The unexpected rains have fallen. The optimism for the year ahead is fleeting. The stress is building and more and more bad news comes every week.
It seems things have taken a turn for the worst and it seems like I’m losing my control.The last four weeks have been like a long, pointless journey – I am wandering in a dry desert and I pray for relief. I have turned off, tuned out and hid away. No matter how long or how far I try to run I know that nothing remains secret from God.
Yet I feel major pressure to react, change cirumstances, DO SOMETHING, seek answers but nothing comes — silence. The silence is deafening. I know I’ve lost control maybe to God – but I wish he’d answer me and let me in on some of these forth coming events.
It is so hard to wait in the silence.

Hey,
this is the first time I’ve read your blog and I haven’t checked your other posts yet (maybe I should have before posting this, oops) so I’m not sure exactly what you’re going through. But I just wanted to say I’ve experienced something similar to this post, so many times. The whole last year was especially hard for me. I’ll pray for you, and know that you’re not alone.

Thanks so much….when I am not “hiding out” I am talking about life, love, God, etc on Shari’s Sentiments and my other sites. Soemtimes there are giveaways and humor too. But since this was started as a smattering of things. And you stopped by on a bad day. But I am glad you stayed. Aloha!
