I Wonder

I wonder what my life will be like 1 year from today. 1 month from today, for that matter! I anticipate what fabulous things God has in store for me. I have had a pretty crazy 2 months. Things are beginning to settle down now and I am getting my perspective back. Or, I should say I'm getting God's perspective back. I always hear people talk about how easy it is to go to God when things are bad and then drift away when they are good. I find the opposite to be true. When things are bad I tend to lose myself in the day to day survival and lose my focus on God. When things are good I am able to maintain my focus.

I have a friend who is in a struggle. She wants to grow her relationship with God, she knows what she needs to do. She is afraid of 'rocking the boat'. She has a good life. Great job, great kids, great husband, great house, etc, etc. I guess that makes it a 'great' life. I didn't use that word purposely though. Without that intimate relationship with God, how great can it be? I don't want to sound righteous but I have a feeling that God hasn't just brought me to this place in my life for me. I think He may have brought us back together geographically so that I can be here for her. If this is the case, I only hope that I will be open to what God intends. Making this life change will indeed rock her boat but the glory in the end is worth it!

Something I heard tonight: Fear feeds the devil, faith feeds God.

My son can read. Coolest. thing. ever.! Everyday he comes home with new knowledge. Who knew talking about the color brown could be so riveting?
