The Sky's the Limit

Routine is good...right?? Of course. Except when it shadows the possibilities we have in Christ.

For so many years, I was caught in a cycle of routine. I was rigid in that routine. Anything that fell outside of it was not well received. It made me very uncomfortable. It was very hard for me to fully embrace God's best for me. Almost impossible.

I have learned that there is a freedom in living in the moment. Living spontaneously. Being willing to change direction when God calls me to. Wow. So many years spent worrying. Crazy.

The sky truly is the limit. My future is an empty slate. I will continue to trust God and live my life as He leads me. I will enjoy each precious moment.

Dear friends, please let go and let God. I know this sounds cliche, but it is heart felt. If you are stuck in the steel grasps of a rigid routine, know that you can break free and once again feel joy and anticipation for all that God has in store. Don't fear change. Don't fear tomorrow. Instead, embrace them both. Lean on those Everlasting Arms.

Back to Life...Back to Reality......

No, really. Truly, this IS a good thing!!!

We are back form vacation. What an awesome time in Orlando with family and great friends!! A much needed get away and time to connect. Priceless.

Coming home was ok. Strangely enough, it was good. Liv left for Space Camp the very next day....and I miss her like crazy!!! I can't wait to hear all about it!!!

Will and I are kicking back and enjoying our week together. We have a return trip to Aquatica planned for Thursday...weather permitting.

All in all, coming home to life as it is, the reality of being divorced, living life one day at a time, is going to be ok. I continue to live my life for the glory of God. That will not change. I have learned so much about who God created me to be over these past couple of years.

With God's help, I will continue to transform into the person He wants me to be. I will laugh. I will live. I will cry. I will pick myself up and not feel sorry for myself. I will praise Him for everything He blesses me with. I will trust Him in all things.

Praise God. Everything's gonna be ok :)))
