Accountability...

I do apologize, for I was knocked off my square by my own insecurities and struggles. I wanted to give up, throw in the towel, be lazy; you name it and I had an excuse. But as I was evaluating on the last topic I presented to you all; which was accountablility, I asked why would God place this word on my heart and lips, Why is God so mindful of me? I'll tell you why, because Daphne was not being accountable, Daphne was not being answerable, liable, responsible; Daphne was not doing her job as the servant of the Lord.


Psalm 144:3 - Lord, what is man, that You take knowledge of him? Or the son of man, that you are mindful of him?



In being accountable, I have realized just what that means. In all I think, say and do, it all falls on me and not another human being. I make the choice to do or say. I am not forced. So during the time when I was not seeking the Lord in all that I do, I was experiencing some things in my life that I was allowing to break me down. When it comes to my children, they are my world and I have sacrificed much for them as a parent should, but it has been a struggle financially and sometimes mentally and physically to support them to the standards of what they need. I had to take responsibility, accountability for why that is and its because of the choices I've made. Although they do not have all the material things they want or need, I'm here for them day in and day out, loving, teaching, talking and taking the time with them they need as the Lord does with His children.

I'm accountable!!!
