Today I have been out and about and extremely tired yet still very driven. Most of the day has already concluded and I am going on my second night this week with almost no sleep which may make this blog a very interesting one. I am waiting on God for doors to open and directions to move about in and thankfully on my journey wondering around town today I received a wonderful phone call. I have been trying to seek the route in which I should be going ministry wise lately because I had given up so much of my joy in trying to pursue lesser things.
My heart right now is overflowing with the greatness and joy of God and the ways He moves my life. I am so excited to say there is a plan for a trip to Spain for one week this summer where I will also get to visit some people who are so near and dear to my heart. I can't wait for the opportunity this brings and Father thank You so much that my heart aches for the lost. I ache for You and thank You for stirring me up and shaking this heart to move in ways I do not understand. This morning began simply with a journey to an oil change and then all the other things swam about in my brain. I am on a mission and to be a purposeful person in my life.
On this journey for the kingdom do I embark and I constantly need the encouragement and drive of You Father. Continue to shift me the direction You would have for it is there I am most complete.
Other ideas swarming inside my brain will continue to push me forward. I have returned for a few hours with a bundle of random things and will venture out again after a nap I assume. There is only so much day left and so much to accomplish but I am a human and finally nauseated by the lack of rest. I sit beside a random assortment of bags that I collected full of great things or better stated things I can use to move forward in a direction.
I sit beside a "Frost Dragon" calender...I know you may be wondering about this situation. Two reasons for this at minimum; the calender was on sale and there were few to choose from, I like the fantasy world to some extent, I love the coloration and there are spaces to write on, I maintain that if I make one resolution this year it is that I need to write in a calender.
Next task or bag sitting besides previously mentioned calendar with a blue and brown color tone is two books. The first a cookbook I picked up as I am interested in some actual recipe building and this one has some healthy stuff in it including recipes for homemade protein bars and I am constantly seeking better ways to be healthy. The second is a book called Three Cups of Tea which I am very interested in. It talks about a humanitarian campaign in Pakistan and I am so interested in the Muslim people and their culture and ways. There is so much we can learn from the different ways of life and people and just genuinely loving Gods creations!
I have also a list of books on my shelf that I need to work my way through but this will commence after some napping, cleaning and actual organizing, and a trip to the gym. The other bags are not necessarily as exciting though I am pleased by the contents of them.
Random things like toothbrushes and bobby pins and other girlie things. It is at this moment that I am reminded at how frightening it is sometimes at the allusions guys have of girls. Yikes!! I am pretty blunt and bold and hope to not have to deal with the disillusionment of a man one day who realizes girls are humans too and not so perfect or so nonhuman though I am sure we appear as though we come from other planets. I know....I know....
Last order of business for this blog is the photography situation. It appears as though I am sitting around with at least 8 rolls of undeveloped film. I am debating through this situation as it seems that I should finally drop them off as somehow thy are dropping like fly and then disappearing. I fear the loss of at least four rolls and so Tempe Camera is in the future. However, I am also torn by trying to figure out a room or place to try and set up my darkroom again. What is a person to do? Hmmmm? Well, I want to begin to get started with all my toys like my books and calendar but have a couple quick things to do and a nap calling my name as my eyelids are sliding slowly down my face and the opening time is beginning to delay. Plus, the sickness I might yack situation in my stomach is also seemingly worse so for the next hour it is time to focus on what my body is saying.
