Big Breath. I feel like things have been moving very quickly lately and I'd like to feel a bit grounded before we spin out of control. We've been driving all over the place (I worked in Omaha last week)and are back in Central City tonight. Logan and I are very much enjoying a quiet evening at home. Dale is covering a basketball game on the radio--he is SO excited to get back into broadcasting a bit. We enjoyed time with my family today for my nephew's birthday party, and will see Dale's family tomorrow and Monday. We have about half of our belongings here and will be finding a time before the end of the month to retrieve the rest.
In an effort to "seek peace" I've been reminded of a few things. . .
-To feel closer to God, I need to be more childlike. Our relationship with Him resembles that of a parent/child anyway. I am helpless. As I watch my son wiggling around on the floor babbling, he trusts me to protect him, provide for him, and guide him through the next day. Similarly, I should quit trying to drive and let Him take care of me.
-This house will not become a home because of "stuff." I've been frustrated as I look through room after room trying to figure out how to place things just so and which "things" to shop for when the opportunity arises. This house is a home because we live here, we love each other, and we are together, safe, and healthy.
-My years of education and experiences thus far are worth something. It's a funny feeling to be 30 years old and facing day one of my first "real job." He has guided my decision making thus far; He's not abandoning me now. ("I'm not in charge; I just work here" :)
-perhaps most importantly, something my parents have always impressed upon me. . . "We must maintain our sense of humor!"
hoping to post photos soon. . .
