It's been a while...

So it's been forever since I've blogged, honestly I never really got into it fully in the first place. You know there are tons of things you want to share, but then it seems so broad and jumbled I never knew which way to go with things. I thought I needed a specific goal for my blog or theme...that's just not the type of person I am so I'm not sure why I was trying to do that with my writing. I am a very broad person in my interest goals, desires etc. I am going to try and be more intentional with my writing. One because I would actually like to get better at it. Two I feel that once I put my thoughts on paper it's easier for me to reflect and grow from that. Three I just feel that were always going through things that someone else can glean from, so I want to share those things.


It has also been difficult to write when I view the last 8 months, I tend to view them as unproductive where nothing was being accomplished, just because I haven't found a church or a job. When that is actually so far from the truth. God literally has plopped me in the middle of Mennoniteville and made me stop and think and reflect and reach for him and be still and wait. I needed this. So often when your trying to figure out the next step others things need to happen first before you can move. I think God wanted to grow me on the inside. So, even though the outside might seem like its failing the good things are happening that really matter that have nothing to due with worldly standards or values.


Izaak has almost finished kindergarten and since I didn't find a job I was able to be home this whole year...blessing

I've turned into a pretty cool soccer Mom...blessing (believe me this was never an aspiration of mine)

I have a beautiful garden, that I've actually had the time to enjoy...blessing

I've got to spend countless hours in the word of God! While he's been drawing me closer...the ultimate blessing



I've got to learn more about living, eating, buying, growing clean products and have been making solid choices in these areas...blessing



I've had the time to figure out who I am...and liking who that person is...blessing

I've got to watch my relationship with my son absolutely blossom...blessing




Just so you know since my last blog I stuck to my convictions, and Halloween, Christmas, Valentines and Easter...I did not buy chocolate, yeah me!


I need to end this rambling mess of thoughts, but just wanted to say I'm really going to try and write out my thought and share what I've been learning.
