Right now I feel like I am in a season.
Yes, I do know it is fall. But that is not the kind of season I am talking about. Although, I do love my warm seat heater, a trip to the apple orchard and Fall Retreats with our junior high and high school ministry.
But, I am personally in a season where I feel like God is refining me. I don't want to say that is more than He ever has, because I know for a fact that is not true. He is always working on me. Getting my attention more and more.
Let me back up. The past year and a half have been an absolute whirlwind.
Bought a condo, got married, finished my masters degree. My husband has been in three different positions since we got married. Health and P.E. teacher to assistant principal to principal. (He loves when I use the joke princiPAL- at least that's what I was told my principal was growing up.)
Now, I am much more settled than at any point in time over the last year and half. Our condo is decorated, dinner is on the table at home at least a few times throughout the week, my degree is getting good use, and my husband is content where God has him.
I feel like in this settled state of life- I feel God speaking to me. Or maybe I am taking time to listen. I just finished up the book of Acts in my quiet time. Oh my goodness, is that ever a powerful book. I had to read sections through again, just to make sure I got it.
Here is my encouragement to you. If you are in a busy or settled place in life, take time to let God speak to you. He is powerful and loves you so very much.
