No Time
Is there ever enough time in a day? That's how my week has been. Just running out of time. Time that is interestingly unaccounted for. Besides the 35.75 hours I spent at work, of course. Thank God for having Friday's off! Everything else is a big blur of changing diapers and eating.......or the other way around. Amy is in Colorado, in seclusion, for the rest of the week. She needs it. She's been one busy momma lately. She's so important to the Women of Faith livelyhood!! KING-RATS to her!!!
I heard an interesting thing on television last night. It was Beth Moore (who I happen to looooove), and she was talking about the soveriegnty of God, and how his very essence is unchanging. He will always remain loving, redeeming, and faithful just as he always has been......but his most comprehendable task involving the creation of man is to change us, mold us into what we were meant to be. I loved that thought. The Unchanging One, changes me. I could very well be pondering this alone right now, but it has captivated my thoughts....so my obligation is to blog it! I will pretend like there are thousands of you accessing this page at this very moment, cheering in unison for me to continue.....So, I must! I have to admit, I don't really like changing.....myself. I don't mind for my surroundings to change (I pray they do soon, in fact), or the weather, or the channel (I'm a flipper), or the gas prices to changed back to a dollar....I'm condusive to most environments. But for some irrational reason, I made up my mind one day (when I wasn't paying attention to myself) that I was already just the way I was meant to be. Like, here's how God made me...here's what you get. Lucky me, I must've thought that day! I see all these poor folks around me who could definately use improvement - and I find myself overly inclined to suggest where they should start. Could this be my super power? "Spiritual gift" some might call it?? Yeah, I agree. I've got a lot of getting over myself ahead of me. But the process has begun! I've been enlightened by the harshest of realities.....while I may have honed my craft of being ridiculously joyful and content with who I am in this present moment, its entirely possible that I was meant for more. I can see you scratching your head now. How so, you ask? Well, from my limited experience and knowledge, I'm under the impression that I am not here to simply enjoy myself. For if this were the only purpose of life, I've reached the end and I should be dead. And that just can't be right!
So, here I go.......to be more. Join me in my quest if you like! The more, the frickin' merrier!
I wish all of you front row parking spots!!!
*that was my start. I would usually only wish front row parking spots on myself. that was a big step!!!
