May. 29, 2007 - It was the best of times...
Lately I have been so overwhelmed by the blessings that have been poured upon us. That is a good way to be overwhelmed, to be sure. I am sure that the house has so very much to do with it, but that is just more of a spring board to the other blessings that have come along. The house is great. We have a new van. Okay, the check engine light will not go away, but we will get to it. We paid off our credit cards. We are headed on a brief vacation. We are blessed with enough clothes to clothe the kids. And me. From many different sources. No, Andy does not have to run around naked, he just keeps less clothes, and shoes, than three girls. Go figure!
It really does feel like the best of times. Perhaps this makes no sense, but we still have the same car that is broken down, more bills to pay, and fear that Andy may not have a job much longer. I still have to work and I hate it. The van still needs fixed and gas is way too expensive. But everytime we walk into our house, well, things are just better. It is a big reminder that God has provided a home for us and will continue to provide for us regardless of our circumstances. Difficult times give Him the oppertunity to work in our lives in ways that we may never "allow" otherwise.
It just makes me want to give my house a great big hug!
