So I have been so bad at keeping up with this…I thought I would try to just sit down and update yall on some things.
First I have a prayer request (two actually)…the first one is for my grandma. Her health just seems to be going downhill. She is 85 and has gone through everything from heart problems to cancer to losing her vision…you name it, she has dealt with it. Just pray that God will keep her strong. Pray for my dad in all this too because he has already lost his father and he has been the only one of the children take care of my grandma since then. May God’s will be done.
Secondly, my aunt (my dad’s sister) with whom we dont really have a relationship with (she is the leader of a cult, does drugs, is in her 9th or 10th marriage, and has threatened to kill my mom, my sister and I) – she is in the hospital as well. When my dad called to let other family know about my grandma, we found out that she was being taken to the hospital right then. She has been unconscious and they said she is experiencing renal failure….not good. So please keep her in your prayers as well.
I have really enjoyed getting to know my friends at Freedom more lately. We have been hanging out for so long now but it hasn’t been til recently that I really feel like I have gotten to know them. God has really blessed me with an awesome group of friends and I just so thankful for that in my life!
On a personal note…I have really been feeling the urge to start really praying about what my next step needs to be…in life I guess you could say. I am so incredibly thankful for my job at Special Counsel and enjoy almost everything about it. The thing is that I know that God has called me to do something greater – or more kingdom minded. My desire right now is to be able to find a job in the Acworth area, move up there, and be able to really minister to the ppl that I along with many others at Freedom have been called to reach. So at this point, I am praying through whether or not that desire is in sync with where God wants me to be. I know I moved to the city for a purpose and see ways that he has been able to use me here but I wonder how long this season will last. I just feel like I am living two very seperate lives. So I would ask that you pray with me and for me that God would be very clear where He wants me and that He would provide accordingly. I have also considered going back to school…there are just so many options right now that I just want to make sure I don’t jump on just one because it sounds the best at the time. There is no safer place than being in the center of God’s will.
(Todd if you are reading this…this is for you! haha!)
So I feel like Debbie Downer after writing all this but I honestly am writing this with a true sense of peace and joy in my life right now. I can tell that there are some new things coming shortly but as of now, God has not called me away from where I am. I just want to honor Him with my life. Period.
Well, I am off to meet my mom and sister for dinner at Stone Crest Mall – GHETTO-VILLE!!! No kidding! Love you all! – Even though I have absolutely no idea who reads my blog…haha. Awkward!
