Haven't posted in awhile and I've missed it. My goal had been to write once a week for fun, or at least every two weeks...Life happens and I'm giving myself grace, but I have several posts that I've started in my head. Let'ssee...where to begin?
How about a little post of God's goodness that I've seen this summer? Because, boy have I seen God working! In fact a couple of the posts in my head are more specific and detailed and NEED to be written, but I'm trying to give myself grace and ease back in ;) So, where have I seen God's goodness this summer?
*morning coffee on the porch
*slower paced days
*seeing Kiara (my daughter) grow and change (full blog post coming)
*seeing my son, Brock, and future daughter in law, Ashlyn plan their wedding and become doggy parents
*seeing my middle son, Grant working his butt off this summer
*going to the gym, sometimes as a whole family...sometimes just one or two of us
*my grand-puppy, Maddie! She is so much fun and then I can send her home!
*loud rock out/singing sessions with Kiara (from worship music to angry girl songs to country)
*time really relaxing in the pool
*time to listen to podcasts
*travel and adventure with my bestie
*worship on the porch not caring who can hear me (sorry neighbors)
*my non-cuddly cat that has started to love on me and snuggle (and the fact that I enjoy that is truly a God-thing!)
*breakfasts out with a friend to catch up
*snapchats and tik-toks shared from sweet co-workers
*intense prayer times over a couple situations (full blog coming)
*a new to me netflix show that just makes me laugh...I love to laugh!
*hearing the birds sing every day and being outside so much
*peace and relaxation on my porch or on my back deck
*morning walks while Kiara walks sheep
*a new workout program that I want to hate but I secretly love it (not so secret anymore)
*seeing God work literal miracles in ways that I couldn't have imagined (full blog coming)
*time in the barn with my girl who is coming into her own with her love of agriculture
*starting/completing a summer program at school to check-in over the summer
*being nominated for a state award in school counseling
*morning coffee on the porch doing devotions (yes I know this was previously mentioned but I've seen and felt His goodness so much in these mornings)
*finding a mother of the groom dress that I LOVE for a steal of a deal
*meeting and enjoying time with our son's future in-laws
*my daughter's instagram messages that are sometimes silly and sometimes heartfelt
*snapping beans as a family on the porch (even the grandpuppy)
*time with my parents daily at the farm...so thankful for both of them
*time with Phil's parents who visited for the fair...so glad they were able to see K show
*excitement over a new apartment for Ashlyn (& Brock after the wedding)
There are so many more that I could probably mention. It's been a good summer. I've worked more than I had anticipated, but I have seen God PROFOUNDLY during those times. I've also been able to take the time to truly relax and enjoy the summer. I feel refreshed and ready for God to use me this year. Where have you seen His goodness? I honestly would love to hear!!!
Be blessed and look for His goodness today. I KNOW that you will see it if you look.
