This month has been nothing short of insanity and its only just begun. Andrew and I are in the middle of several projects in our home. They're fun, but sooooo time consuming! I will be excited when we get the first floor done.
Last night I went to a conference at our church with Brian and Jenn Johnson. I feel like I first need to say, if you don't know who they are or haven't heard them, GO LISTEN!
They have an off the wall story like Drew and I and Jenn Johnson is freaking hilarious! She said something last night that hit me like a ton of bricks and I believe will stay with me forever. She said "no matter what season you're in your life, enjoy it, soak in it, know that it is the exact season the Lord wants you in". I really believe that every season of our life holds eternal weight. Some make sense, some don't, but they are all valuable. I am the queen of to do lists. I am constantly adding on to one or starting another and sometimes I live my life that way. When I cross something off, I have a hard time stopping to enjoy the accomplishment or the victory.... I just move on to the next "to do". The last 2 years of my life have held some of the biggest changes ever. They each held their own season, all completely relevant to my destiny.
I tip toe to the bridge waiting to hear God's big booming voice, and quite often I hear silence. Sometimes I hear the earth's song, and sometimes I hear what I desire... sometimes I see with my eyes wide open, sometimes I see with my eyes closed shut... on all accounts... no matter the season, no matter the reason, still... I want to praise Him. When I'm sick, when I'm lethargic, when I'm satisfied, when I'm undone, when I'm in love... still... still I will praise.
