merry go round...




Time seems to keep flying...
2 weeks ago Drew and I did worship for a conference at our church. The speaker, Jim White was life changing. It brought me back to my Southeastern days. Its rare to come across speakers like Jim or Dr. Rutland who captivate and lead your straight to the foot of the cross. His messages from that weekend can be downloaded at www.healingroomsvalpo.com 
Labor day weekend was a good one. We spent the majority of it with family and friends. I have to admit the highlight of my weekend was spent with one of my favorite 2 year olds! I envy the wonder in his eyes, the truth he speaks... 
Andrew and I are still waiting on this house thing... It seems like its nearly impossible to buy a house.... or as Andrew says "nearly impossible to spend your money". We're crossing our fingers, hoping to be in before September 12th. 
My mom is coming to visit next month and I could not be more thrilled. Some days I miss her so much I can barely breathe... I'm so excited she's coming!
I suppose nothing too drastic has changed since the last time I spoke to most of you... I'm still learning, loving, living... still riding on this wonderful thing we call a journey. Jesus continues to revolutionize my life. 
Its funny... every time I think I have this dancing thing under control, I realize I don't. Most of the time we dance to these dizzying steps to a broken tune. And I admit, I am no stranger to a repetitive rhythm , lately my steps have been a bit different. Thank goodness I celebrate the pursuit of a Father who lets me step on his toes when I forget the choreography, a Father who whispers the words when I forget the melody... There are many things I'm still learning to let go of... and like the softest of songs, I am slowly gaining perspective. 
Dear Jesus,
don't delay... it is for you I wait...
