February is almost 1/2 over!

Can you believe it???
The year is flying by so I have been trying to daily look over my New Year's Non-Resolutions to help keep my focus!

A small victory this week: I FINALLY made it in to the gym yesterday! GO ME! I'm a little sore today...I'll be back in there bright and early tomorrow morning! Well, early anyway. Not bright.

So not much going on in our world...besides the usual craziness that is!

I have been impressed lately to use the time I am here to the fullest...I don't know where God will lead in the coming months and years. But I know He wants to use me here and now. He wants me to grow closer to Him. He wants me to keep one eye on the future, anticipating where He will lead, keeping flexible for change. And at the same time, He wants me to grow sturdy roots here where He has planted me. An interesting concept...as God has grown me in just a few years from adamantly desiring to stay put, stay stagnant, to desiring greater things...His things, instead of my own. I wanted so badly to live My American Dream. But, to His glory, He has other things planned for me!

"Greater things have yet to come"

In Your Freedom

I have nothing more
Than all You offer me.
There is nothing else
That's of worth to me!

I love You, Lord!
You rescued me!
You are all that I want;
You're all I need.

In Your freedom I will live...
I offer devotion...

~Hillsong

I love this song right now...in fact, have to admit, I'm a tad obsessed with this song! Everytime it comes up on my iPod, I listen to it at least 2 times in a row....

Wow. I pray that the words of this song will indeed ring true in my life...it's a bold statement to proclaim that I have NOTHING except what He has given me. NOTHING. That includes the faith to even believe, the faith to live each day, money to buy my Starbucks, brain function to think about what I'm learning in class, patience to deal with patients at work, my understanding husband....I could go on, but you get the point.

What else can I do but offer my devotion to Him?
