Do you ever times when you're heart really does feel as though it is singing?
Has there ever been a time when you just want to sing, dance, jump or squeal like you did when you were little?
What about just wanting to smile, all the time, for NO apparent reason?
Today has been one of those days. A lot has went on today: a friend has moved in, I have changed rooms. A lot has went on this week. A lot of changes. And the thing is, change scares me, it honestly frightens me, but, God has given me peace. The peace that He PROMISES to give His children. And why I didn't remember that or realize it, I don't know, well, I do know. I was to concerned with all the change that was going on to stop and let Him give me that peace that He promises. Through all this God has taught me something I never would of thought I needed to learn: that material things, STUFF, is not important, at all. I am a pack rat, gee whizz, am I pack rat! But God has taught me through my precious Mommy, that this stuff, really doesn't matter. I got rid of a ton of clothes, shoes and there is more that I need to get rid of. And, it has been so freeing. And I hope that I never loose the ability to literally see what I don't need and to just be able to give it away.
Through all this change, moving, giving away and everything else God has given me joy, peace, hope and freedom! And for all of this am SO thankful! I am so grateful that He has chosen to give me all of this and the ability to see that HE is what is important, doing what HE wants is important. Not all these worldly goods. I also KNEW that, but I never held onto it, I never wanted it, but now I do! And I praise God for that!
