Good Morning Everyone!
Once again, I greet you with "It's been a while..." but I think that is the story of my life. Other than go to work and take care of my son, I'm not sure what I consistently attend to. I chuckle as I reread that last line. There are other things I'm consistent doing, but blogging is not one. But this morning, here I am.
I'm sitting in Starbucks waiting to begin another season of Non-Competitive Basketball for my KinderKid. This morning I listened to a song sung by Bethel Church in Redding, CA. My Sister-Friend sent it to me. It had me in tears (what's new). The song was "Nothing I Hold On To". It was a song about giving everything to God and trusting that God will "make something beautiful out of me." The song spoke to the sacrifice of Isaac, Abraham's long awaited for son. He had to climb the mountain knowing that he did NOT want to give up what he knew was God's gift to him to love and protect from all harm. But he did...
I think of my own life and all that God has been asking me to hand over. My son, my career, my heart. And I will have to trust that all this craziness that has been my life is making "something beautiful out of me."
Happy Saturday!
