Facing My Goliath!!

[Amber Trumbo]

Everyday these past few weeks has felt like I am facing a huge giant and I am trying to figure out how can I knock this one down. I know and realize that we all go through these seasons in our lives and different challenges that we don't neccessarily ask for, but they come. Whether it be a reslut of something that I asked for in the past or something the just came up. I have been going through.

I haven't been doing so well with blogging lately. So now I decided to at least try to once a week. I have been dealing with child support cases and My daughters father has a girlfriend that has been sending me threats over something that I can't control. She has been getting letters from the child support office and apparently she thinks that I have something to do with it. I have no clue where she lives or what he has done with her in the past, but now my ears have had to suffer with horrible threats and comments from her. All I know is that she has an anger problem and trust issues and she takes it out on others. So I decided to not even pick up her calls and delete all her text messages. I would change my number but it is used for business as well and I don't want to lose my clients over immature behavior. So I just ask anyone that is reading this to just pray for me to have my trust in the Lord that he sees this and knows what is going on.

So that was just a layer to the cake. My Godson was sleeping one night and his trach fell out. the nurse wasn't properly watching him and fell asleep. He was blue and to make it worse his mother had to find him there and I am sure that she had to relive the moment when she found him almost two years ago like that. Good news is, EJ is doing wonderful and progressing like never before. It is just the thought that how can someone be so careless and on top of that be in a career where life and death is literally in your hands. His mother is trying to complete nursing school just pray for her rest and strength to endure so that she can help save lives in the future and have a good financial foundation to raise her son.

So far two layers on my three layer cake! Here is layer number three. My uncle just recently passed away. He had a sudden death that no one expected at only 58 years old. He was a very fun loving individual. The most disturbing thing is that there was not a wet eye in the house except for one and I am not sure who she was to him. That discusted me and irritated me. I am not saying that everyone should cry but the ones who were close should have had some kind of sadness like his wife, his son, sisters and brothers. People I would expect to miss him and cry a little weren't. Especially for someone who loved to talk to people. It made me just sit and wonder.

Now the Icing in the cake,I sprained my knee. LOVELY, I am not exactly sure how I am going to get around but I was blessed to have one friend offer to come and stay and help me along with her daughter. So that I can get around. I just can't see myself chasing Faith..LOL All in all I am thankful for people that care. I am trying to look at it like its only 2 weeks but I am looking at it like OH MY 2 WEEKS. I have to trust that God is taking care of this and that he will be my help and send me help in times of struggle.

Life can be nuts at times. But I am greatful for the oppourtunity to wake up and he apart of life everyday!! Peace and Blessings.
