Contacts

I know that I am still receiving blessings durring this "storm".  I see new things every day.

Through out this process I have been sharing how others have suffered at the hand of bipolar.  As I talked with a new friend on Facebook yesterday, I became so thankful for the "new" people in my life. I say new just because I may have known who they are but really hadn't gotten to know them until now.

The new friend I talked to yesterday struggles with some of the  same issues in my life, but the wonderful part is the fact she sets her focous on Jesus!! I love the people  in my life who may have their weeknesses or hurts, but still hold fast the the promises the Lord has given us! I just can't imagine a life with no savior. Sure I would still have family and friends but no hope, no joy. Joy in my salvation keeps my head above water. For those of you who may not know Jesus, joy isn't happiness, it's more! It's what keeps me going.

A song we used to sing in one of our churches, this line I love, " this joy that I have the world didn't give it to me, oh this joy that I have the world didn't give it to me , you see the world didn't give it to me and the world can't take it away!!"

I really ment to talk about all the new contacts I have, got side tracked. One thing we all have in common is Jesus!
