<\/a><\/p>\nI\u2019ve had to compartmentalize my life. I\u2019ve had to do what I needed to do each week and let the rest wait for its turn. It\u2019s 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\u2019s not until next week, so I\u2019ve not been able to focus on that particular piece.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Don\u2019t get me wrong\u2026each of these are very important and I LOVE all of them. That\u2019s the problem though. I want to do it all. What I\u2019ve 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\u2019ve had to do. And I do not believe He\u2019s going to stop now.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And I have to say, this is just the \u201cwork\u201d part of my life. There have been big and wonderful things happening in my personal life as well.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Yesterday, Mason and I celebrated our 15th<\/sup> 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\u2019t wait to share some of the most precious times we spent while visiting this part of God\u2019s beautiful creation.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n And then there\u2019s Full Measure of Joy<\/em>. I have missed my daily writing and the truths I learn as I focus on God\u2019s Word and His working in my life each day. But for now, I can\u2019t fool myself into believing that it\u2019s possible. I can\u2019t seem to write three times a week anymore!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 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.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cI have set the Lord always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.\u201d<\/em> (Psalm 16:8 \u2013 NIV)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cTrust 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.\u201d<\/em> (Proverbs 3:5-6 \u2013 NIV)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cThe name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.\u201d<\/em> (Proverbs 18:10 \u2013 NIV)<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cYou will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you.\u201d<\/em> (Isaiah 26:3 \u2013 NIV)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Grace and peace be yours in abundance,<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Donna<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" You\u2019ve probably been wondering what happened to me these past two weeks.
