I don't think our entries for last week's challenge have been posted in the group journal yet...
Debbie says it only takes her 15 minutes to make a tag... I hope I will be able to get to that point!
I didn't like the stuff they sent for this week's challenge, but although I usually only enter two, it looks as if I have made quite a few attempts this time...
This is one of my entries for this week's challenge... I know I am posting this early in my journal... but I work so hard on them that I didn't want to wait to post my work...
It probably would have been better if I had animated the water, but I think it looks okay as is... (No animation means you can use this one, Kath!) LOL
The Youth Leadership people called to ask me if I am going to volunteer as a Staffer in this year's leadership camp...
Lord, you know I want to, but I still do not have a job, and if I have a job by then, will they let me go to camp?! It is a full six days... I will need to check with the bus to see how much it will cost to get there... I leave it in Your hands, Lord... If You want me to be there, You will find a way to make it so...
My daughter will not be coming to Corpus Christi after all, so the trip is off... I was looking forward to seeing her and the children and my best friend, too... but the price of gas keeps going up everyday, as we speak... so it is probably a blessing not to go...
I am a bit hurt by my daughter's attitude towards me lately... She hasn't returned phone calls and she keeps snapping at me: Have you found a job yet?!... as if she is very disappointed in her mother...
It's not as if I haven't been trying...
Must not let others opinions or attitudes towards me upset me, no matter who they are...
Abba, I am sad, because I do not have a job, but I want to remain STRONG in my Faith... I know that You are aware that there is too much fire within the very depths of my soul to keep me secluded between the walls of The Glass Box. You know that my greatest desire is to serve others and that my desire is a noble path...
I continue to wait upon Your word...
Lord, I do not want to be sad today... Please help me to pick up the pieces, so that I can be myself again... and follow through with those leads with a cheerful can-do attitude...
Please make something special happen today to make me laugh...

I like your tag Wini. I also didn't like the tubes and stuff for this challenge and was not happy with my results. I probably won't even post mine. I really like yours though. You did a lot better than I did.
Hugs, Joyce

Hmmm, to get you to laugh?! Well, we'll have to think about that one.
On another note, perhaps the youth leadership team could cover your transportation costs, if you let them know your unemployed situation? I'm sure you'd be of excellent use there, and the Lord may just want you to go. I suppose you're right, leave it in His hands, pray about it, and in time, you'll know your answer.
your tag looks great :o) Sorry to hear that your daughter won't be going and that is she is being quite hard towards you. I hope that will change xx
