My life in a nutshell

Its amazing how my life has changed in the past 9 months.  I hurt my knee back in April and thought nothing of it until the pain wouldn't leave.  With an abundance of prayers set in motion a whirl wind.  I hobbled along for a few months convincing myself that any day the pain would go away.  Finally the last week of July I went to the doctor and was told all kinds of news, non I wanted to hear but all that I need to.  At the time I was working as an assistant at a preschool and knew at that moment there was no way I would be able to continue in that line of work.  I prayed for the next couple of days of what to do.  I ended up resigning from my job and taking a job that allowed me to sit and rest my knee and challenge my brain.  I am so happy at my new job and my knee is beginning to slowly heal.  I know that there is a long road ahead with it but am so thankful that God knows what He is doing and that I can rely so freely upon Him.  Finances have become easier for my family (huge prayer answered).  And now I am one a journey of learning more about something called The Daniel Fast.  I am currently reading about it and believe it would be very beneficial to my body and my relationship with the Lord.  So I am sure I will be blogging about that at a later date.  Life moves along in our home, my little girl is currently fighting her first illness of the year (school year) and I am completely engrossed in Sarah Palin's Alaska on TLC. So with that I am off to check on her and make a cup of hot tea and soak up the Alaskan wilderness.

Learning, Slowly, but surely.

I want to become more. I want to be the person that others find those little qualities in that they strive to attain.  But then again perhaps I am, I know many people out there that I see qualities in and I do strive to be more like and it helps me to become a better person.  And looking back those qualities go hand in hand with my prayer each night: That God is proud of who I am and who I am becoming, and that whatever I did today He is proud of me.

It is so early in the morning and I have so many things racing through my mind. 

I have put in at the library for books that are not only written by an author that has work considered to be a 'classic' but written by an author that learned a thing or two that might be able to teach me something through their works. 

I am also trying very hard to get completely organized, it is proving to be a slower process that I had hoped, but none the less it is taking form.

Well off to begin my day, the coffee is brewed, and all is quiet, for now. 

I pray that your day is one God will be proud of too!
