it's about time

Wow, rereading my past month of blog posts I realize that I was quite a drama queen....granted I'm passionate about everything I do but still...wow!


This past weekend the most astonishing thing happened!!! My book arrived...the one the USPS saaaid they delivered on my door step. Well, it arrived via residents 5473  not 5743 (my actual address number) it had been ripped open and make shifted back together with scotch tape....but never the less; it got to me! I am very happy that I now have it to read!  I have already read through the third chapter and I am not disappointed.  Steven Furtick does a wonderful job breaking down exactly what goes on in our heads and relays it to scripture allowing his reader to be aware of their lack of audacious faith that God so willingly hears and responds to.


Amongst other things that have been 'late to bloom' so to speak: I have decided that I was going to discipline myself to go to bed at a reasonable hour and wake up no later than 9am.  This may seem a bit unimportant but however it makes a HUGE impact on my ability to get my chores done and have a set aside devotional time rather than rushing or fitting it in.  It is also time I become more organized...I often forget to do things such as tithe on time, remember specific prayer requests, memorize a helpful verse, of even call to check in with my family and friends.  


There is also a particular task that I am taking on that will require a lot of dependence on the Lord, which I have felt recently has been God's pull on my life. I hope that it isn't as hard as I think it will be. BUT God is faithful, and reading this book has really opened my eyes to see how big God can move and I don't want to put a boundary on His capabilities to redeem.  


I am really looking forward to start training in a new area at work, which starts Monday, this has kind of been something I have been trying to be patient about and now it is almost here!  God may not be opening doors that I think I would like opened but He sure is opening them in other areas and He is there ready to give me favor and blessings!!  


So as a new time/season/chapter/phase (whatever you want to call it) is here and quickly shaking things up I am really nervous about where everything will land and where I will be when it does haha It is kind of exciting though too!!!!


YAY for change!


"There is a time for everything,
   and a season for every activity under the heavens:
 a time to be born and a time to die,
   a time to plant and a time to uproot,
 a time to kill and a time to heal,
   a time to tear down and a time to build,
 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
   a time to mourn and a time to dance,
 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
   a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
 a time to search and a time to give up,
   a time to keep and a time to throw away,
 a time to tear and a time to mend,
   a time to be silent and a time to speak,
 a time to love and a time to hate,
   a time for war and a time for peace"


- Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
