YIKES!!

It's been a while since I've posted...sorry :( Life has been incredibly, incredibly busy! My new job is in full swing and it is good...but INSANE! There is SO much random information floating about in my brain, and I don't know what to do with all of it yet. Hopefully in a week or two, the air will clear, by head will feel like there is room in it again, and I will be able to breathe.

If there is one thing I've been reflecting on recently, it's the incredible goodness of my Savior. Sometimes, I can get so easily caught up in the American culture of MORE and BETTER...when really, my God has given me SO much NOW. I have an amazing husband who loves me. I have a home. I have a wonderful, loving, supportive family. I have a church body that is such an incredible gift to me. I have a job. I am healthy. It is so easy to just keep pressing forward and looking for the "next thing." When really, all I have to do is stop, take a deep breath, and praise my Lord and Savior for the HERE and NOW. Delight myself in my Redeemer, in His incredible love and faithfulness. Be content. Love. These are the thoughts floating through my busy brain.

SO, if you have a second, take a breath with me. Ponder all of the AMAZING blessings in your life. I guarantee that, even if life looks tough and intimidating right now, you can find something that is an amazing gift! God is SO good...and that doesn't even begin to cover it :)
