Silly girl come rest with me!
I have been on a bit of high for the last 6 to 7 days you could say. With having to paint our new apartment, clean it so it is livable, go to work and be able to function properly, I kinda feel like I haven't slept in a week. Then with the move right after it it has been interesting to say the least!!
You know that saying "what goes up must come down" well I am experiencing that quiet abruptly and realizing that I must have been sticken high. The coming down is hitting hard, but at the same time I am still going. I am having a hard time letting myslef come down. Though my body is trying to tell me other wise.
It is neat through this experience I have sort of realized a couple of things. 1.) being that I do have a hard time fully resting and taking time when can feel my body arguing with me (which is not new news for me) 2.) being that maybe God is showing me something in all of this. Like maybe I treat my spiritual life the same as I push myself physically? I am trying to learn, learn, learn when God is just saying to me come and REST in me and we will have fun and learn together. I don't want you to push yourself that fare come and sit! Something to really think about and work on changing.
And I know that there are some if not all of you out there going duh!!! I want you guys to know that when I push myself that hard I know it's not good... I just have to take the expextation off and let myself REST!
::Change::
Well it's finally starting to sink in that we are moving! Tonight we got almost the whole house packed up and with the day getting closer and closer I am starting to get more and more excited. Hopefully all the painting is done by Saturday so then we will be able to move in and see how we can fit all our stuff in there some how.
It is going to be nice to be in a new place and get to decorate it the way we would like it. It will also be nice for the fact that it is sort of like a new beginning, a time to start fresh and see what new and exciting adventures come from our way. And as much as it is be a big stress and a lot of work moving can be fun!
In the last year and half of me being up here in Hamilton this will be my third move! Isn't crazy!! I guess you could say I like to move around a lot and I enjoy change.:) I was thinking about me moving quiet a bit and it is a lot like my spiritual life right now. I seem to be moving and continually working on getting ride of my extra baggage and be able to work new things into my life. Trying to make sure there is room for God to take away my burdens, hurt and pain away. In return it is bringing me closer and closer to Him and allow him to love me as his daughter.
God is so neat how he works everything together for good. And He uses life to
model our spiritual lives all at the same time. Thank you Lord for saving me, thank you for guiding me, and most of all thank you for sending your son to die on the cross so that I could have a relationship with you that will, has, and is changing me to be the witness and example of You to all the nations!
