Hello everyone!!!
It's been forever since I have posted last....and sometimes that's just the way it goes. So hold on tight...time for an update.
I've moved....(yes again!!!) but this time it was definitely the right decision on multiple levels. I have a townhouse in Springfield, VA....moved here in November. Much more space for the girls to run around and play...a small yard in the back...so the Grill is out...and I'm so looking forward to when it warms up...so that I can go out and use it!!
Anyway, just about finished with my Leadership Cohort program...(1 year well worth all of the work) we'll see what comes of it. I graduate in February so really looking forward to that. I was offered a job contracting with DOD this past weekend...which really shook my world..and even thought i submitted my resume, the pay was less than what I make now..so it was not meant to be...I was still a little bummed...the idea of doing something new and exciting...was just that...EXCITING!!!
It is clear to me that God didn't have that in His plan for me at this time...just not my season, yet.
Speaking of God....He has really been speaking to me the past 4 or 5 days...encouraging me to come back to Him and His word. I have found this sense of renewed faith...and vision. I have been spending about an hour a night (usually after 11pm) to read. INSANE!!! I'm not a big reader. I've been reading "Every Man, God's Man" and "Before you plan your wedding, Plan your marriage" (reading that with MJ) and of course navigating my way through His book.
It's really been an experience reading, and thinking and meditating on some of what I've come across in all of my current selections. I've been reading in Hebrews, about Character change...and I've read about how to change and become a true follower with Christ and a devoted spirtual learner, that there is a change...and i've been reading about how to strenghten that relationship with God and with my friends and family.
I must admit, that i have some work to do in those areas...but don't we all? I'm positive I'll never be done growing and learning...but then again...shouldn't it be our goal, our responsibility to take care of ourselves...and to strive to be more God-like?
Anyway, there is a lot going on in my life...but I'm taking the time for the things that are important....like this morning...i made sure i didn't leave for work until I had a chance to spend some time with my daughters..and make them breakfast.
It was a great time!!!
Well Hopefully I can get back to posting regularly...but who knows...
God bless everyone!
