God has just been growing me by leaps and bounds since i started counseling, its really more like intensive discipliship actually. All i know is that I feel so blessed that I get to stay home and manage my home. I get to be my husbands helper and I get the privlidge of taking care of my daughter. I've been really, really, blessed to have a husband that insits that I stay home for howerver long we can possibly afford. I didn't work for a few months when Carl and I were in the wedding plan process but after we were married i went back to work..I liked working but not as much as I love managing my home.
Can i just say that my home looks awesome!I wish that I could take pictures of my home for you and post them, but alas my camera is broken but I am proud of the home that i've put together for my family, it's freeing and refreshing...and I never knew that i had this amount of creativity just waiting to burst out of me.
Now of course not everyday is full of creativity and fun, but I'm growing and striving to have joy in my life and to be content with what God has given to me. I want to be joyful no matter the circumstance and know that God has a plan and a purpose for even the mundane things in life. I'm learning to be thrifty and I'm learning to be creative, things that haven't naturally come out of me are starting to develop and pour out of me. It's beautiful truly beautiful and not because of me but because of the work of the Holy Spirit in my life. Philipians 1:6 has a whole new meaning in my life now. Isn't it great to know that God doesn't leave us where he first found us, that he beckons us to come and fully follow him out of our despair and out of our sins.
Philipians 1:6
"being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it unto completion until the day of Christ Jesus." NIV
