Big changes are coming to my little world.
Putting the house up for sale.
Downsizing (in everything... goodbye, my sweet LG Cosmos Touch phone).
Sending my puppy to a home that can love him better.
The impending prospect of going to school full-time and working three days a week.
My upcoming college finale.
I get lost in the chaos. I focus on the clutter and the frustration, on the roller coaster ride and on the disappointments.
When did I choose to focus on these things and stop focusing on the things that really matter?
With changes comes the devil, trying to get his hands in between my family at every turn. Trying to destroy the relationship I have with my husband. To make it weak so it will break.
My sister-in-law gave me the best advice the other day. She said, "Cling to each other and stay diligent against his attacks." How right she is.
Every other week we don't have Brynlea, we kind of get a week off. However, do you know how long it's been since we've actually planned for a DATE night? Let's just say, it's been a while.
I had a friend post on Facebook how wonderful her date night had been with her husband and how it was only that special alone time that was going to get her through the chaos of the rest of the week. I took that chance to ask my husband out.
You know what I need to focus on? My date night tomorrow. The wonderful time I had with my church family tonight. Laughing over mistakes like leaving my windows down in the pouring rain. A wonderful church service coming up tomorrow. The sweetness of a new found friend, along with her sassy attitude. The beauty in a simple kiss. The adventure that God is taking my husband and me on.
Time to turn my focus.
Until next time,
Keep Reflecting :)
