Utterly Grateful
That phrase perfectly describes the past year of my life.
I cannot describe the joy and peace God has brought to my life.
I often wonder what I would do if God took it all away. Like tomorrow. What if God took tomorrow from me? He would still be a just God.
I try to prepare for unforeseen episodes in life that snatch precious moments from our lingering fingers. I greatly enjoy the simplicity and complexity of life. I love to research and research and research unanswerable questions. I try to never stop searching for peace. I want to be able to comfort a person during pain and anger and to be joyful during their celebrations.
Since starting my job, distractions seem to disappear from life. I am more persistent in developing relationships. I complete my devotions every morning at the office before the work day begins. My time outside of work is precious. I can't believe how worried I used to be about God being...God. I am praying consistently for ministry within the new church we are committing to. I am loving marriage more than ever. I miss my family and friends dearly, but am excited to plan trips to see them. I wish I could convey these scrambled feelings more adequately.
This is a wonderful moment in life to be at.
