Yeah, I know. It has been 2 weeks since I last blogged. Lately, life has been a bit like this (see above picture). I'm hangin on for dear life, flying by the seat of my pants, bracing for the upcoming holiday season(s), and laughing myself right through it all.
I'll be honest, I have sat down a few times in the past two weeks to blog, but could not bring myself to actually publish the post.
I have so much on my mind and on my heart. God has truly been working on me in an unbelievable, unexplainable way these past few days/weeks/months. Just a few things that have touched me lately:
- the new girls in my life who could have never come together if it were not for the Lord's work. He's an incredible match maker I tell ya.
- the ribbon cutting and (soon to be) grand opening of Jill's House. A project that is unimaginable and all the credit goes to God. It is a project that could never be possible without Him. I know that Jill's House is exactly what I need in my life to strengthen a weak spot. I have also been blessed to meet so many great people just by volunteering for the cause!! (Check out Fox news this weekend for a special on Jill's House!! Should be airing nationwide!!)
- the opportunity to spend time and appreciate my family. My uncle from Kansas spent a few days with the family, time with my dad at church & volunteering, special time with my grandmother, and sharing excitement as my sister dives in to her first few weeks of her new job!!
- my challenging job that would have aggravated me before, now inspires and encourages me to become a sponge for knowledge
I just know that I am RIGHT where I am supposed to be. For all those minutes/hours/days I felt lost and broken, I now feel found and whole. Let me assure you that my moments of weakness can't begin to compare to the feeling of purpose and understanding I am in the midst of experiencing.
Now if I could only slow these days of fall down just a bit so I can breathe and soak it all up ....
