Growth Spurt

Today was an unexpectedly hectic day. I couldn't actually tell you the last time I had a day off. Considering this, my coworker only scheduled me for a half day. Good in thought; bad in practice. I didn't actually leave until 3.5 hours after I was supposed to have left. (Upside: God loves me and I somehow evaded a parking ticket. Work was so busy I didn't think about feeding my meter, nor would I have had time.)

So after a full day of work, I made it home. I'm thankful I made it to my house in one piece because I didn't eat breakfast before going to work. I didn't take breaks to eat. I'm not even sure I took breaks to go to the bathroom... But as I walked to my car, I was beginning to feel slightly light-headed. Pulling into the driveway without any automobile mishaps was definitely a plus. I spent some time unwinding with my parents. (If you can call it that.) We ate dinner and then I went to a Christian Education Committee meeting at Church.

With my Pastor's impending departure (this is his last Sunday), things are getting tense. Decisions are being made quickly, possibly too quickly. There is the fear that decisions have been made without discernment and they might cause future hardships. Of course moot point: anything could cause future hardships.

At this meeting I had a breakthrough. A Christ moment. I know I've been doing this a lot lately... but this deserves an entirely separate post. I'm just amazed at how, when I am focused on living for Christ and according to His word, everything that I'm wrestling with seems to be revealed to me!
