welp...big gulps huh?

Gotta say, some days are better than others. But, this you knew. Everyone has those. This is no surprise. But the thing I want to look at is why they bumm us out. I mean, we know they are coming. But is it that we expect everyday to be awesome and exciting? Or that our lives be better than others? This I have no idea.

So if our hope is in Christ, and it is a living hope (see 1 and 2 Peter), than what I am thinking is that I am low in the ol' hope tank today. Don't get me wrong, I barely made it through worship at church this week without weeping at how amazing the LORD really is and that He would rescue one like me and ransom me to His side. It is a thought that stops me in my tracks at least daily. It could be the low energy due to the paper I wrote late into the night...1 of 5 that I am writing this week. Or, could be a day of learning for me. You ever have those days where you think, what else could there possibly be to learn about this situation in my life, and...it seemingly is a lesson that you have already gone through.

I am hoping that the LORD is positioning me for something... I KNOW He is, but sometimes I feel like we are wasting time and all I am learning is to wait. And that can be a really, really good thing.

I am not a patient person. I am like Old Testament Israel in this way. Ready to solve a problem humanly and make a decision. It has been hard to not be able to do this lately. I am in the waiting room. So, then there's that.

Big gulps Huh? Welp, see ya later.
