The Walk: I called out to be released caught in my struggle for higher achievements and my search for love..*

I called out to be released caught in my struggle for higher achievements and my search for love..*

The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step....

I have just got back from taking 'The Test' to end all tests. I am not sure how I did but I do know that I feel a release.

It been a tough road, but when I look back, I can't believe the miles I have come, just by saying everyday..sometimes every hour..."Lord, direct this step, cause its the only one I can take today." Some days I took more than one step other days I sat and rested...but now I feel like I felt on my old backpacking trips when I would hike all day and at the end of the day, in sheer exhaustion, take in the vista before me.

Thanks for all your prayers. I won't know until next month how I did but that's okay..

Been waiting for the call with the big ol' whew!!! Glad you're done. Now sit back and rest and take it all in. Enjoy those girls. Lynette and I may have to come crash your party since ours fizzled out. Of course, I'm not sure either of us should drive. I'm such a cheap date.

Smiles.

hmm... I'm Beverly, I love my kids and my dog...I love the ocean because it screams to me the awesome power of God....I am really afraid of heights, but I did go climbing and rappelling once...I love for people to make me laugh and I love to make others laugh...I love really scary movies but when the lights go out and I go to bed I find myself checking under the bed, and kicking myself for watching them..I love rain hitting the windows of the car..I absolutely love thunderstorms..I love children and how Jesus took snotty, loud, little kids on His lap, even at the protest of His followers...I sometimes jump in too quickly and that gets me in trouble...In my life, I had to actually touch the stove to believe it was hot..
