The Moments in Between

It's been a while, huh?! Well, I guess it seems like much longer than I guess it has been. Where to begin?

This past week and weekend has reminded me of just how very faithful God is to all of us who trust and believe in this faithfulness. I was able to finally rent out my house, which was a huge blessing for me this month with my savings nearly depleted and no interviews as of yet. Many times throughout these last few months I have wondered where the money will come for various things, but I never doubted that it would be rented. I had peace about that among the other chaos that my life is currently in. Which was a tremendous blessing!

Despite the weeks upon end of specific cover letter writing, resume crafting, application completion, certificate purchasing (and finally completing- I am now Certified Media Specialist in Georgia!), networking events, and every other thing you can imagine regarding job searching circa 2013, I am starting to understand this part of the journey. I am developing confidence in myself, awareness of my abilities, and my presence. My passion to serve has come alive and I have become far less selfish with my time. Volunteering has been an integral part of my weekly schedule and I look forward to it. I have become intrigued with the past and delving into my family history has become so exciting. God is teaching me to enjoy the moments in this journey. 

Today, though, another reminder of God's love for my family and I, is evident in a precious little baby girl who turned one today. My sister is the amazing mother that I always knew she would be and Julia Sue, well, you all know that I am smitten with her (along with the rest of my family). She has changed our lives in amazing ways and through this past year she is evidence of God's faithfulness to those who love Him. 

So, this is me still resting, waiting, and even more hopeful because doors I can't see are getting ready to open. Opportunities are waiting for me behind them and I am enjoying getting there. These are the promises of those who wait on Him.
