ILG,
I apologize for coming on so strong in my earlier post. I can be very passionate about some things.
Something Ferd pointed out in his earlier post rings very true for me and my husband.
"For some staying and being right is the only thing that can be done because in the end, someone will be needed to clean up the mess."
This seems to have been our lot in life - staying, seeing things through and being part of the team that cleans up the mess when it's over. I think we are all made for difference services and God uses our personalities in these areas.
I think our children were tired of hearing, "We are going to see this through!"
That doesn't mean I agree with everything and have never voiced my frustration. I've vented with some friends on this very forum. It's just not something I would do openly. Even though some things can really rankle you, you know you have it to do and you have to turn your face to the wind and keep walking.
I think it's not good for me to post on such a thread. lol It only makes me feel impatient when I've seen things falling apart and you are trying to hold it together because you know in the grander scheme of things, the victory is so sublime.
We've just passed through a very trying time here. My husband, as is his way, took the helm, steadied the boat and sailed us to the other side, of course, with God's guidance. The victory is sweet! I had all this in mind when I was posting.
Again, I apologize. I'm sorry to offend.
