I'm sitting here, about to fall asleep, munching on Olive Oil/Cracked Pepper Triscuits trying to stay awake...If it's possible, life is about to get just a little crazier! BAH! Don't get me wrong, it's all stuff I'm excited about. I just hope I have a chance to breathe :)
Chris' brother was here this weekend and it was really great to see him. He and his wife moved to Italy this summer...we have missed having them around. This coming weekend, Chris' aunt and uncle are coming all the way from Montana! I am super excited to see them and catch up on life. They are an amazing couple who truly love people and love the Lord! Such an encouragement!
Also, this week marks the beginning of a new start for our church's youth group. Up until now, we have had middle/high schoolers together every week. Starting on Tuesday, they are split up! I still have mixed feelings about the split, but God knows what He's doing and He has given us an amazing youth pastor that I completely trust. Chris and I, along with 2 other couples, are leading the middle schoolers. So, if you get a chance, pray for patience :)
A good friend and I are also starting up our high school girls small group this week. This is probably one of the highlights of my week. And I am SO stoked for what we are going to be studying. I love being with the girls, building relationships, loving them, and pushing each other closer to Christ.
It is so easy when we are busy to miss out on life. It's happening all around us and when we are busy we don't take the chance to notice. It's my hope and goal that in this busy season, I continue to take time first for Christ, for my husband, for my family, for my friends, and for me. That I take the chance to notice all the life that is happening and ENJOY it. That I don't get caught up in just the DOING. But that in all of these things, it is about more than just doing them...I desire to glorify my Savior in all of these activities! SO. Here is to a busy season. Lord, may you be glorified in everything!
