I have done a LOT of thinking and praying this week. Being SO involved in the Lord's work for 10+ hours a day tends to make one reflect on her life. The Lord has really been speaking to me lately about the commitments that I have in my life. I am feeling VERY unsettled with all of the "things" that I have going on both now, and as I look toward September.
I have not prayed as diligently as I believe I should have when making "decisions" about where to serve and what groups to join, etc. ALL of the areas that I have been a part of are WONDERFUL--there is not one that I "want" to (or have wanted to) give up...but, the Lord has placed it on my heart to really pray, pray, pray and reevaulate my involvements. Perhaps it has become even more vivid as I was away from my home and my kids for more than 12 hours each day this week...I don't know, at any rate, I am feeling a deep conviction to focus my attention on this right now.
If you think of it, would you pray for me? I don't know if this post makes any sense...but it is what my heart is feeling at this exact moment. I want to be obedient to the Lord's calling on my life. I just wish that there was a billboard in front of me telling me what to do, where to go...
...instead, I will pray and wait.
One Hard-Working Daddy + One Multi-tasking Mommy + Three Girly Girlies + One Creative Boy = BLESSED

I'm definitely praying for you! :)
I love that you feel God speaking to you about the future. You were a great addition to the mission trip team this year and I am so happy to know that it was altering for you. I am praying for your to have patience in waiting for Him to direct you and clarity in hearing that direction when He is ready.
we can never pray enough, can we?
He will show you what to do - because He wants you in His will.
(i'm taking that advice too, btw)
Your right...I don't fully understand your thought. However, I hope YOU come to understand your dilemmas and whatever decisions you need to make...if it's meant to be, it will all work out for the best!!! I hope to see you guys this weekend, let us know when you have a free minute. We'll be on lot #60 at Stafford Park from tomorrow till Sunday. We'll be at my Grandma Mays for the fireworks (please come sit with us...it's the best seat in town!) and we'll be on my Mom's front porch for the parade!!!!
I understand what you are saying and I will be praying!
You know that I am praying!
