April Currently

I hope your Easter was filled with family, friends, love and laughter!!

(And yummy food, tasty treats, bunnies, eggs, and jellybeans!!)

Wow...April already!?!  

Listening

When I was a little girl,
I remember thinking that there must be something very wrong with adults.

It seemed like the adults in my life were always watching the news.

Always.  

And if they weren't watching it...they were reading it.  

And getting their fingers covered in black newspaper ink.

(Remember when newspapers did that?!)

So now...whenever I watch the news, I feel very "adult-like".

But, now I wonder if my little boy thinks there must be something very wrong with ME!

Loving

I'm a Jesus-girl.

I love Him!!

I love Easter and the HOPE it brings to my heart.

I love being reminded that death has been defeated.

I love knowing with absolute certainty that sin will never have the final word.

And, I love the words of my pastor when asked if he
really 
believes in the resurrection...

"I not only believe it...I'm counting on it!!"  

He is RISEN indeed!!

Thinking & Wanting

So, my dear sweet friend from my small-group at church invited me to Yoga.

I almost said no.

{Big Sigh}

Then, I said yes...reluctantly.

So, now that I've committed, I have to follow through.

Someone please tell me this will be a good thing!!

I really want to get back to feeling like the best version of myself.  

Life is too short and precious to spend even one more day
just wishing change would come.

Time to act.

{gulp}

Needing

Whew...having a house for sale is no fun at all.

Advice

I'm such a newbie!!

In other words, I'm completely under-qualified to offer advice.

But, I know I struggle with balance.

I love blogging & creating for TPT!!

But, I have so, so, so many other things going on in my life.

Bigger, more important, essential things.

Things that deserve a place of honor in my life.

prayer

Bible study

being a good wife & mother

taking care of my own wellness

meals

family

teaching

fellowship

graduate studies

"me time"

So friends, be kind to yourselves.

Blessings are found in balance.

I'm linking up!
