It has been too long since I have blogged, but I am not spending ANY time in the local Starbucks to do so. Being a mom of two boys keeps me hopping and contrary to what I always thought in my 20's, I am loving it!
I have yet to fulfill my calling as a missionary to teen girls in Alaska, yet I am fulfilled, at peace and each day is so sweet where I find myself. The timing of God has always frustrated and amazed me. When I am so troubled with His timeline, He smiles at my enthusiasm and says to me, "Trust Me". I have chose to listen to His voice and each day I reap the rewards beyond my wildest dreams. Am I in Alaska, ministering to the teens girls that have burdened the depths of my soul? No, I am not even close, yet such a peace and a joy fills my life knowing that I am in His timing.
It amuses me where this blog has gone as I have set here typing in bed, the room dark and a tv show on in the background. I had set out to write about my Christmas tree this year and instead have set here and blogged about the timing of the Lord.
I just cannot believe how blessed and happy I am in my life right now. Each moment I spend with Cole and Zach overwhelm me with joy, gratitude and feelings I cannot put into words. Lord, you are so good! Do I have the latest fashion, the name brand bag, money to go shopping, nope. Do I have shoes that have seen better days and clothes from my college days, yup. It doesn't matter, not one bit. I have my boys, gifts from my Father and for now, that is what fulfills my life and I know it is just where the Lord wants me. ( BIG SMILE)
