truth: i am a tired, stressed out mess.
truth: i hate social security offices.
truth: i am constantly asking Jesus to not only cover my sin, but to cover my stupid, human errors (he always does)
last night, boo and i went to kings island. they have their halloween events going on through the month of october, so it had a fun fall effect to it (although i HATE the scary houses...we only did two and i just do not like to be afraid...don't make fun of me for being scared of those). we rode some awesome rides and just got to act like little kids. to me, there's something romantic about theme parks and carnivals at nighttime. and i truly have the best husband ever. he is just so wonderful in every way....i really can't get over it. and i will never apologize for being mushy on here... i am his biggest fan!
also, the Lord has answered so many prayers lately and i am so thankful. after i got married and moved away from my college friends, life was busy, but very lonely. many times, with tear-filled eyes, i would just ask for God to give me a girlfriend, or a community of some sort that i could grow in. He was gracious to fulfill my request. a few months later i found out that my best friend from high school had happened to not only be moving back home, but to begin walking with the Lord again. not only this, but my small group from high school has been reunited and we are beginning to meet again...with another girl who had not been walking with God, but now is! we are meeting on tuesday evenings and are going to start reading "how people grow." i am so excited and beyond touched with how my Lord and Savior provides for me and moves to answer my prayers. when i am sluggish, doubtful, and tired in my faith, i remember all the kind things He does for me.
there is so much i am learning right now, but life is crazy busy and i hardly have the time to post...but i really need to find time to post about what i am learning about what it means to be the bride of Christ, because it's awesome.
i hope you all are blessed... i know i am, even in the midst of the tiredness, stress, and everything that life and the enemy throws at us sometimes!

So happy you've found that support and encouragement we all need! Hope it goes great, and that the stress will start to diminish soon! =D
ReplyDeletea) you must live near Cincinnati--I grew up in southern Indiana and loved going to King's Island, though I'm with you...I'm not a huge fan of scary ;)
ReplyDeleteb) I moved to a place far from friends and family--and I think it has been a blessing because God has helped me learn so much about myself. Hang in there..all of this will be worthwhile :)
c) enjoy the rest of your weekend! xoxo {av} | {long distance loving}
I read the part about you being lonely and just had a sob burst forth from my mouth..i do not like that you had that experience! but i'm glad the Lord used it. I love and miss you very much Court!
