Stalled Journey

Sometimes it seems like the more that happens, the less I write. Will try to get back into practice of putting my thoughts here.
We are beginning a new study in small group, concerning knowing God's will. I am really looking forward to this study and hope I can come away with some concrete, continuous method of looking for, understanding and applying God's will in my life. I don't remember every reading or studying specifically, God's will, so this will be a first for me.
So many of the people that I work with and care about are going through difficult times right now and I feel at a loss to make a difference with them. I pray that I can be there for them and pray for them. I feel honored when a coworker asks me to pray for them. And my clients right now are all seemingly in turmoil. I don't know if it is the unsettling economy that brings out all our "warts" or what but business is brisk right now. too brisk. It is very clear these days that without God I could not begin to do my job. It is sad that I had to get overwhelmed to admit this though.
I continue to be in awe of my children. They teach me daily about the important things in life. I am so blessed to call them mine. Karen comes home soon for a short visit and I can hardly wait. Go figure, Brian will be in Honduras and Karen will be here?
On Facebook, there are so many quizes and tests and "what quiz show are you?" I don't do them because I am too lazy but what if God had "what kind of christian are you?" application? I would be ashamed when it would be posted for all to see. In all honesty, it would probably say something like, "sometime christian". Oh I don't change my mind and sometimes choose not to act christian, but do I always remember who I represent? That is my food for thought for tonight.
