"Be happy, while you are young, and let your heart give you joy in the days of your youth. Follow the ways of your heart and whatever your eyes see, but know that for all these things God will bring you to judgement. So then, banish anxiety from your heart and cast off the troubles of your body, for youth and vigor are meaningless."2 people have pointed out that I look happier now than I have in months. A third person agreed. I am now humming and singing throughout my day- I haven't done that in probably 3 years! (Ask my roomie- she was the one that pointed out how I used to do that regularly and had at some point just ceased.) I even caught myself dancing in my kitchen on a Monday morning before going to work.
- Ecclesiastes 11:9-10
For some reason, I've just really felt blessed by God these past few weeks and feel happier and more joyful than I have in an extraordinarily long time. And that's not to say that my life is perfect or better. I just see God's blessings now and what He had in store for me. There was no reason to worry or be anxious. God had the perfect idea in mind for me... better than what I ever would have thought of with this dream job, great new town and hospitable church. I feel as if He designed me to be put here! It's like a great fog that was around me just instantaneously dissipated. Or like I just woke up from a deep sleep, now refreshed.
