A Different Entry

So, I have neglected this journal for a couple or so weeks. Not much really to write about.

This journal started off as a way to talk about the way that God is moving in my life. He continues to move in my life. He is never as far away as we sometimes thinks He is.

Today was a tough day. Eleven years ago, I lost my daddy to colon cancer. I wasn't going to go to church, but decided it would be the best way to honour him. I cried a few times. One time was rather embarrassing. I had to actually get up and leave. The lady who came out and helped? I forgot her name. How embarrassing is that!

It has been a difficult day, but I've managed thru it.

This is short, but I had to write it.

An Exciting Life

So, I was leaving church on Sunday and sometimes I tend to think on my drive home. It's not a long drive, but it's long enough for me to think and to talk to God about what is going on in my life (or what isn't).

So, on Sunday, the sermon was about leadership skills that would be needed in the leadership role we are trying to fill at our church.

I'm not sure how my mind works at time, but what was said in the sermon got me thinking about my life.

I don't lead the most exciting life. At least as some people see it. I don't go out and party every night or week end. I don't use drugs. I don't have sex. I don't drink. I don't do the things that some people think make for an exciting life.

Nope. I'm a dull person, really.

I prefer staying home or doing some clean fun, like watching a movie or television. I enjoy spending time on my computer. I enjoy spending time with my cats and my best friend. A good time to me consists of my best friend coming over and watching CRIMINAL MINDS with me.

But, my life is exciting!

Every morning, I wake up excited about what blessings God is going to bestow upon me for that day!

It's exciting to think that what I'm going thru is going to bless someone else!

I may not have the so called excitement of others, but I have an exciting life nonetheless!
