Time to Catch Up

I've been sitting at this desk for well over forty-five minutes, wracking my brain to come up with something worthwhile to write. Sometimes, words don't come easily. Most of the time I have to search for them. Sometimes I give up. Most of the time I just ramble on, typing whatever flows to my fingers.

Since I still haven't come up with anything to write, I guess I will tell you about how life has recently been treating me.

Here We Go!

Opportunities
For the last year and a half or so, I've been seeking the Lord's will for my life. Although He still hasn't seen fit to make His plans known to me, He has given me many wonderful opportunities to serve Him while I'm waiting.  He has brought to my attention time after time that He is always in control.
A friend of a friend needed a babysitter for her 7 and 10 year old girls. Since I was out of a job, my friends figured I would be interested and set up an appointment for us to meet.
God comes through for me every time! Next week I start my babysitting job.
This year, I was in charge of our church's Christmas pageant. I'm going to be honest with you. It was stressful. A lot of hard work was due, and we only had three weeks to get everything ready. By God's grace, we pulled it off. There were a few glitches, and some obvious mess-ups, but I could have never asked for a more willing cast to work with :)
I will continue in my search for what God has in store for my life, but in the time that I am waiting, I will be content in the little things.

Christmas
This year was different than all the rest. I can't put my finger on it exactly, but something was different. Maybe spirits were lighter. Maybe I didn't have as many people to buy for. Maybe it wasn't as stressful. Maybe it was because I was more focused on my Savior...Whatever the difference was, I liked it.

Well, I hope you enjoyed this little update! 

Have a Blessed New Year!
