Good with Good

I was legitimately ill for the better part of last week. I didn't go to church, I missed some work and still have the lingering seal bark cough. I haven't been quite so sick in some time. I went to the doctor and they even made me wear a mask. I'm not kidding. Take a look!



I mean really? Was this necessary? I'm fine and on the mend, but what I find interesting is how it has sort of jump started something new for me. I feel like the last few months have been this emotional roller coaster with so much change and challenge. Now since coming out of my "days of recovery" I feel better inside too. I feel recharged emotionally. Things have laid down, something's been changed and I finally feel like I have caught my footing in this transition of growth. Learning to stretch your capacity can really start to bend your knees; you've got to readjust your footing.

I feel like I'm finding my footing. At least for now. I know there is more to come. I never will stop growing, life will continue to be challenging, but for this growth spurt I seem to have adjusted to the weight and things are good.

I appreciate status quo. There is something within me that finds these bits of respite to be so peaceful. Joe's preaching tonight encouraged me by reminding me about peace. The comfort of peace and things to cultivate peace. I am grateful for grace and appreciate peace. I'm also thankful for nights like tonight, where there's not much to write about just a good night.

Made new friends tonight, saw people get saved, smiled a lot, was told I looked pretty, got to chat with the hottest guy I know for a second, yep it was a good day.

Thankful
Full
Blessed
