Vacation??? God is Awesome!!!
There are so many great things going on around me. God is doing amazing things in our lives, the lives of those around us, and just in general. He is opening doors to opportunities that never would have been considered before and He is providing more & more as we continue to have faith in serving Him. I look at all these wonderful things and find them exciting. I look forward to Sunday, Wednesday, & Life Group to hear what God is doing, to see what He is going to do, to learn how to walk with Him better...
(I know you've been expecting it, so here it is the big...)
But, I desire a vacation so badly right now. My house is a mess (due to putting together new furniture and reorganizing and hating to do dishes and laundry being done just not put away and having other responsibilities that prevent some of the cleaning up), I am tired (I get at least 7 hours of sleep, so why am I tired???), I can't seem to be able to stay on top of my lesson plans (which will hopefully get better as I am able to create an actual workspace for doing them), I feel as though I have lost connection with a lot of my friends (busy lives, married vs single, college vs working, work schedules, church involvement), I feel as though I don't have the time to enjoy what I want to do at least from time to time (make cards, scrapbook, read a book, watch a tv show-w/out doing something else, call someone)...As I sit here and write this blog, you are probably saying well why don't you stop writing and do something to help yourself, I AM, I'm writing. Writing helps me to express my thoughts, so I can fully understand what I'm thinking and what I might need to do...
Now let me describe my vacation to you...it would involve organizing my house, making a schedule, getting a "teacher" office set-up, catching up on housework, coming up with ways to make life a little bit easier that aren't complicated....oh and sleeping, maybe.
And as I look at the awesome things that God is doing, my complaints seem empty, pointless, and of my own doing...I'm thankful for a God who gives me strength.
