It's a New Year!

Well, I think I've done pretty much one of the hardest things ever. Hard for me, that is.  I took a leave of absence. You need to understand: I'm a "golden retriever." I do anything and everything for anyone and everyone. I try to please everyone, even at the expense of taking care of myself. It's called "martyr" in some circles. Well, the Lord is trying His hardest to break me of this thing. So, at His urging; umm...His "hit me over the head so I will do the thing" prompting, I did it. I spoke to the office, my good friends, and they are giving me six weeks or so to take care of myself. Further, I want to see what God has in mind, because I sense that He's changing things up a bit. I am confident that He has plans for me and for the LAMP staff, and I WILL NOT BE SHAKEN as I sift through this. Please pray with me, would you? God, our faithful God, will hear all your prayers. Thanks!
