I think what you're doing, immersing yourself in everything prayerful/Biblical and taking the Proverbs Challenge, are the very best things you can do!!! I have read through Proverbs this way a couple of different times, and each time I always pick up something new. It's happened to me over and over again, that I get some kind of physical ailment (like the eye thing) and I realize it's a kind of message that I need to re-focus and get back to where I should be. I would love to hear what you pick up from your Proverbs study this time around!!! =)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271473.post-11071891351529841142007-08-07T13:36:00.000-05:002007-08-07T13:36:00.000-05:00I love Michael W.

The sad thing is that we tend to stay "connected" more when there are problems in our life. Otherwise, I think we feel that we're handling life just fine by ourselves. Count me in for the Proverbs challenge. I'll just start a few days late!Terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18440602705415606589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271473.post-49372377735419031222007-08-06T09:07:00.000-05:002007-08-06T09:07:00.000-05:00I'm glad you signed up to join.

It is in these times that we think we are too big for God that He shows his love for us by gentlely pruning us back to Him. I have been saved 37 years and I have been through this phase many times. I praise God He never has left me there and never will.<BR/>Happy Birthday. My dd son will be 30 on the 13th. My I feel old. I could be your mom.
