for this reason

For This Reason, He has me here, doing this. For This Reason. So what is it? Just when all the questions in my mind are answered, new ones appear. Will they ever be gone? I think not. But I'm learning not to hate the unknown, but to embrace it with a Kingdom perspective. God has everything in control, and in that I know I can rest. Though if I'm being honest, I often wish I could look into the future and see where He'll have me 10-20-30 years from now, and what I need to do to get there. It would make things so much easier as far as my mind's concerned. But that's not His plan. One step at a time, one day at a time. That's the way it was designed.

Still the stressful moments fill many time slots throughout my day. And sometimes I just want a break. That's why I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving this year. Time with the family, playing games, eating turkey, and laughing alot. Doing nothing in particular, but experiencing all the joy the holidays have to offer. May this Thanksgiving remind me of what we truly do have to be thankful for-- the blessings that He has poured out on us. I never want to forget.

My mind and fingers want to go in different direction. My mind would say to blurt out all the random thoughts/questions/insanity that's shuffling through my head right now. My fingers say to go to bed and try to catch up on some of that sleep that I've been deprived of in the last 7 days.

I shall do a little of both. For those of you who want an update on the Montreal trip, I hope to be able to give it to you in the shape of a video this Sunday at church. For those of you who want to know when we can do something, probably after this week things will (might) slow down for a bit. For those of you who are flying up from NC to see us, I can't wait to see you. For those of you who are wondering why I'm still typing, you're wondering is now over. I'm going to bed.

Night.
