I am definitely a "Let's get this project going and get it done" type of person. Lately, that's all we've been doing; little projects. Between unpacking the last few boxes that have been set aside for an unknown reason, organizing rooms and home school materials, finally cleaning out the garage so Nate could park his car inside, and the everyday hustle and bustle, I had been feeling exhausted. It's a lot of work! I realized I wasn't taking time for me - physically or spiritually. I quickly got that fixed.
Jillian Michaels, welcome to my world (again). That's all I'm going to say about that!! :)
We have started attending a new church and really enjoy it. We are getting connected with a newcomers class and meeting new people. God really does have His hand in every aspect of our lives. We have trusted Him every step of the way on our move and are discovering more and more about Him and ourselves. It is fulfilling and wonderful. Taking time to slow down, read His word, wonder at His creation and worship Him has been uplifting. All the stress, work and exhaustion begin to dwindle and I question why I wasn't keeping up with my personal time!! How often do I need to get something done only to find out it really wasn't that important. I need to worship God and praise Jesus for his gift of salvation! Everything else falls into place. I can do all my working, organizing, cleaning, etc once I take care of my heart first.
Praise God for His mercy, grace and everlasting love!
