Finding my way back...


"I am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down..." Nehemiah 6:3

(a friend sent me this in a time of need)
it was the crying out of my heart but i wasn't sure how to put into words, much less, actions! she knew what i needed at that specific time. this was what i was called to do...my work for now is these three lovely angels and i had become otherwise engaged. i had "come down."

now, however, i am back!!!!

it feels amazing to be in my skin again~
*to write things on my "daily to do list" each morning and actually finish them before night fall and not just have to move them over to the next day
*to enjoy my afternoons with these 3 without seeing through them to the long list of other obligations i needed to fulfill
*to find the way i was created to be again and all in proper order.

finally, to weed out what was not necessarily a bad thing but something that found it's way into my life that was not of Him. it is so "freeing"
it landed me directly back as ME!...

Thanks, Andrea~it's amazing the conformation that has come along with letting go of the preschool teacher position. I know I put it off longer than I should have trying to please the wrong people but it has been such a blessing to just be a mom again! I know what you mean about not being in the classroom again after leaving the first time. It's a difficult transition and one I don't think I am cut out for going back to again!
