Things will be changing around here! A lot has happend in the past two months. The amazing homebirth of our second daughter and a lot of revelation in my own heart and life. The past year and a half have been incredibly difficult for me, adjusting to life in another country and trying to 'lay down my life' for my husband and children. But I am also incredibly grateful to more I begin to open my heart and life to God, the more my spiritual eyes are opened to how He has been guiding me and blessing me the past year and a bit. He is not punishing me! He is blessing me by gently making me into the women I long to be so I can live the life Ilong to live. I have so many dreams and desires, but they cannot happen until I am ready to handle them!
I liken it to a small child who wants a horse...for her very first horse you would probably buy her a pony or small gentle horse...not a fiery unbroken stallion! Though the stallion may be beautiful and thrilling to ride someday, it's certainly not appropriate for now. Someday I'll be riding that stallion of my dreams, but for now I'm on a nice safe horse as I learn and grow.
Kind of a silly analogy, but the first that came to mind. The below post is a link to Sally Clarkson's blog page and give-away. I cannot express how thankful I am to the wisdom and advice she pours out to women all around the world. I encourage any woman, mother, wife to check out her books and blog page.
More to come in the next few days!
