The Latest News at Child of Light:
August 6, 2007 - It's certainly been awhile since I posted any updates. My life took an unexpected turn these last couple of years as clinical depression interfered with my life. I thank our God in heaven that I live in a time and place where medical help is as well informed as it is about my particular problem and medication is available which actually helps! To say my life was derailed is much too melodramatic but I was certainly stopped dead in my tracks for a long time. So, this website and other personal projects were forgotten as I pulled my life back together. Depression runs in my family so this was not entirely a surprise but it still took a good deal of awareness to even realize what was happening. It took a lot of prayer to remain focused on getting better! I'm doing better now and looking forward to returning to my former "fun" things to do.
Aside from that little tid-bit of information, nothing is "new"...and that's fine by me! I've updated the "About Me" page. I hope to do the same with the "Links" page and some others. God bless your day!
October 23, 2004 - Once again I'm amazed at how quickly the year went by. I'm checking in this time to make my apologies to anyone who may have sent me an email in the last year. In an effort to eliminate as much "spam" from my inbox as possible, I've set up some very strict filters. While I thought I had things set up so that any email coming from Child of Light would go into a specific folder, I discovered today that my set-up was wrong! So, I apologize if you've written, asked a question, and I haven't gotten back to you. I think I've corrected the situation now so I do hope to hear from some of you. I check my email everyday and generally will reply within a couple of days.
On a different note, I've had it brought home to me lately how precious is the fellowship of believers. More than ever, I appreciate my brothers and sisters in Christ, my church home, and the love that our Father in heaven lavishes on me. When the world of man seems out of control or the forces of evil seem to be making headway, it's important to have a supportive spiritual family to turn to; people who will lift me up, encourage me, instruct me, hold me accountable to the Word, and even carry my load for a brief time so I can rest. That's what family does for one another and I love them all. We are to be Jesus to each other. I hope all of you are experiencing that love and personal attention from fellow believers in Christ everyday. "They will know we are Christians by our love."
October 13, 2003 - Hello! It's hard to believe that nearly a year has gone by since I last left a message here (though that doesn't mean I haven't updated the site a couple of times). Mostly I just wanted to let visitors know that Child of Light isn't running on auto-pilot, that I'm still here, still interested in the ministry, and still looking for good, Bible-based resources for the unequally yoked. That includes resources for both women and men, by the way. Though I have nothing critical to add to the site at this time I am continuing to work on making several pages directed at teens and those of "dating" age. I'll add those as soon as I'm able. So, that's about it from here! God bless your day and it's my hope that Child of Light will continue to be useful to my Christian sisters.
