Seasons Change

Today is November 2nd, and after a short stint outside earlier today, I can finally feel the nip in the air, the crispness, and that WONDERFUL feeling that fall brings.  I LOVE, LOVE,  LOVE this time of year.  Plus, it means that we are a few steps closer to Christmas!!!!  In fact, I noticed them putting up the city Christmas decorations, on Halloween...before a trick was even treated!  LOL

Nevertheless, one can't deny that the seasons are changing, and in more ways than one in this house.

I know I've mentioned this before, but 2012 was an interesting year for me to say the least.  Until recently, I've viewed it as a setback, a year of wandering and confusion, with little professional growth, but I could NEVER deny the personal and spiritual growth that I experienced.  In fact, that's what I cherish the most about that time....JESUS!!!!  Do you know Him...?  LOL!

But anyway, that's not what this post is about...dredging up the past...this post is about the future; like my birthday that's in 5 days....or my cousin's wedding...speaking of weddings....when is MINE?  HA!

I was driving the other day, feeling a bit overwhelmed by my to-do list; the garbage, grocery shopping, my new car registration sticker, the car needs an oil change, going to the pet store, 1st of the month obligations....can a sister get a Boaz to pay some bills...lol, driving out of town for the third time in four weeks, and just not feeling like it...you know...those moments when you find yourself needing a helpmate?!  Anyway, a couple of months ago, these thoughts would have put me in a sour mood, but that particular day, I blasted my praise music, and thanked God for the super awesome man he MUST be preparing for me because it's taking so dang long!  Like, he must be amazing...seriously y'all!  LOL

Anyway, I am hopeful with no real evidence other than the promise I have from Him that my time will come...even if it's taking forever to me.  Which in actuality is the only evidence I need.

PLUS, I'm praying about two huge things right now...seeking His will for me in regards to them, because I've been there before, and just don't want to move ahead of time...I'll share more when I have a direction from Him...new seasons!

So...here's to new seasons, and new fun stuff happening!!!  Have a GREAT day you guys!
