last nights phone call

I got a call from F last night. I view that positively. No final decisions have been made. She got a lot of questions and still needs to talk to her pastor. I think we both realise there will be issues to deal with, but right now I just need to be patient and see how things pan out in Gods providence.

F and M

I went to see F at the weekend. It was friendly enough. I went to her church. I think we both have mixed feelings and now she says she will not come in February but will phone me. I think I can understand that. I also felt like pulling out, but did not as I could see some positive signs as well and one must take time to think things through slowly and carefully. I do that, and I think she has learned to do that.

Also I am standing up to M. She really needs taken in hand about the foolish things she is doing. I understand why she does them, but in the long run it will do her harm. I have prepared a very long email for her and I hope she pays attention to every detail as it comes from knowing God and a lot of life experience. God is not a Genie to grant us our wishes. I think she treats him that way. She needs to learn discipline and obedience

need

more than a week into the new year. I wonder what it will contain. I am going to see F a week on saturday, so that may be the start of something.

I also hope to find a course of distance learning study. I bookmarked one today, but I need to look at it in detail and then see if I can get funding.

Perhaps by the end of this year, I will have deeper understanding of God supplying my need.
