Reflections on the letter written for the free home

I wrote somethings that were on my heart this morning, affirmations of what God's word says about his people. That we are wonderfully and fearfully made, that he has adopted us as sons and daughters into his kingdom. That He is love. That in Him we are one. When I posted it on the site to win the Veneta home.. it sounded conceited and I felt sad. The other sad part was the double posting. I reflected on my positives which is a rare thing. I so desperately struggle to beat the deep depression that threatens to swallow me up. I so desperately want a home that my husband can come to once he is well. I want a place to build on the ambitions hopes, plans and visions that God has given me. I am a visionary with a very inventive mind. I need a solid home base and workshop to flourish. All of my visions are about establishing resources and events that will help our community and world. I want to open my home to those in need. I want to succeed and give back to the world meaningful things. I want to be generous from my fruitfulness. The hope has been greatly lacking until last night when I heard about the house on the news. I had just been talking to my mom about Veneta being a place to consider for a home should she move. Financially a miracle would be the only way I could own a home.. but then again I believe in miracles so I invested the $19.95. I have been praying for a miracle but I cant say that my needs are greater than anyone elses. I feel blessed even though my needs are great and my challenges are many! I don't care to list or dwell on them because my potential is so much greater than my circumstances. Blessings to all of you! Love Shell
