We knew this time was going to be challenging and stretching and full of unknowns. Believe me, we've been on this journey for about 3 months and we've already hit the majority of those feelings. God has been faithful through it all and will continue to do so. "It's why we're here."
My life has been picking up as I have been offered more hours at my current part time job. It's not full time yet but I had a supervisor tell me that the best way to be considered to become full time is to have them see the need for me. Which means that I just need to be around and ask for ways to help and work the maximum hours they'll let me before giving in to giving me full time. Sounds like a deal.
I have been meditating on God's greatest commandment to us. "To love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul and all your strength. And then to love your neighbor as yourself."
There are so many commands Jesus gave us to live our lives by to be more like him. This surpasses all and I feel that if we can live to understand and really love God and our neighbors as ourselves then some other commands Jesus gave us will just fall into place. When God is the only thing that matters it will be natural to live more for others than yourself. Just a little of what I've been pondering lately.
I do know that God is good and He loves us.
