Hello Blogger it's been awhile...

I have to confess....I've been cheating on you.
I've been around...I post elsewhere, I started a new relationship with a new online journal. I'm sorry.....and yet I'm not.

I've been wanting to write and been wanting to get use to "writing" on the computer as opposed to my hand written journals. So I figured I would start another one, not unlike I do with my hold in my hand, grab a pen and start jotting style of journal too.
Can't have too many I say!
Although...that theory takes on a different meaning when you have to pack all your above mentioned pen and paper journals and move them from point A to point B and they weigh a ton and you have no bookshelves or storage for them once you arrive at point B.
But...at any rate...I will stick to my previous belief of ' you can't have too many'.

So much has happened over the past couple of months...really, over the past year and a half.
I'm sure there's a book in there...but I'd prefer to use snippets of the experience at this point to reflect on and be encouraged by them, cuz that is part of life too.

In the Bible it talks about a book of remembrances. Those would be considered journals. I love that I have numerous books of remembrances to look back on, learn from and see all that has happened along lifes way.
I don't do it often, some of the journals are painful and dark, they unsettle my soul and they can breed disappointment in myself and guilt. So i don't think it's productive to read those...at least not until they don't illicit the same emotions.
Regret I've been told moves you forward...guilt holds you where you are.

Thinking back over the past year, I am at awe with all that has transpired. All we have accomplished and all we have learned...and are learning.

Since the end of June, God has spoken to friends and even a couple in Redding at Bethel who prayed over us, about us.
We have been given words of encouragement, words of blessing, insights into what God has for us and confirmations of where we are...what we're doing and where we're headed.
I can't say this enough, or stress it strong enough....We Are On The Most Amazing Faith Walk Of Our Lives.
And I don't see it ending anytime soon...if at all. I'd be thrilled if it never ended. I am gobsmacked at the stuff we are learning.
Oye! Amazing!
I'm grateful to my very gut with the words that have been spoken to us, the pictures our friends have been Divinely given to share with us.
I don't know how to express my gratitude fully.
But thank you...so much. God you are amazing. You are simply amazing.
The things we are learning are transforming our lives are making us look at what we've known to be true in a different, deeper, impacting level.

I
am moved beyond words.

And I want the capacity to learn more, hear more, experience more and just....be.

Just Be.

I'm done for now....I'm gonna go "be".

Be still and Know....
that I AM God.

Yes, You are.

I'll be.
