Where Am I?

 

You’ve probably been wondering what happened to me these past two weeks. Well, they’ve been super, uber busy! And I know I could add a few more adjectives to this word “busy,” but I think you get the picture.

 

?

I’ve had to compartmentalize my life. I’ve had to do what I needed to do each week and let the rest wait for its turn. It’s been tough. I wanted to think about Creative Bible Journaling, when I had leadership training to write and administration stuff to do. I wanted to build my Journey group, but unfortunately, it’s not until next week, so I’ve not been able to focus on that particular piece.

 

Don’t get me wrong…each of these are very important and I LOVE all of them. That’s the problem though. I want to do it all. What I’ve been doing over the past month has all been good. They are Kingdom-building things and to be honest, God has blessed each of these programs or tasks that I’ve had to do. And I do not believe He’s going to stop now.

 

And I have to say, this is just the “work” part of my life. There have been big and wonderful things happening in my personal life as well.

 

Yesterday, Mason and I celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary. What a blessing he has been to me through the years. To celebrate, we will be in Moab, Utah over the weekend. I can’t wait to share some of the most precious times we spent while visiting this part of God’s beautiful creation.

 

And then there’s Full Measure of Joy. I have missed my daily writing and the truths I learn as I focus on God’s Word and His working in my life each day. But for now, I can’t fool myself into believing that it’s possible. I can’t seem to write three times a week anymore!

 

So let me just share a few passages of Scripture that are helping me to focus on one day at a time until this busy season of my life comes to an end.

 

“I have set the Lord always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.” (Psalm 16:8 – NIV)

 

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.” (Proverbs 3:5-6 – NIV)

 

“The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.” (Proverbs 18:10 – NIV)

 

“You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you.” (Isaiah 26:3 – NIV)

 

Grace and peace be yours in abundance,

 

Donna
