My oh my do we ever serve an amazing God! See, I started working at the age of 16 and for the most part, this has been the main thing I've had 'fun' doin since then. If something work related was going on, it's been somewhat expected that I attend. If it were not work related, inner guilt got the best of me and attempted to keep me from attending.
Wednesday, I found myself realizing I don't think I've ever allowed myself to take the time to have 'real fun' cooking and doing stuff as a Wife and Mom. It's like I let the 'expectations' of these roles take over. My Husband's Mom was coming over for dinner and I found myself 'dreading' the whole process of getting groceries,cooking, etc. I started the day in prayer and found myself asking God to show me ways to have 'fun' doing these things. Amazing-I strolled thru WalMart picking out the 'perfect' fish to cook(even found out Talopia is not Dolphin-duh?!) and then had a great time looking for a Valentine 'goody' for my 21 year old college Daughter-4 Tiara's for her and her roommates to wear to show they are TRUE Princess's to God! Came home, lit candles and had an amazing time preparing the food!
Yesterday, woke-up-Thanked God for the 'fun' I had and asked if I could do it again, but this time, I needed the help to allow myself to go to my Woman's Life group during 'work' hours and have fun. Most of the Ladies there know, I kind of had to 'fib' in the past and say I had a meeting scheduled so I didn't get in trouble.
I went, again, had an amazing day with Ladies who are just that~amazing! As we get to know each other, we're allowing ourselves to let our guard down and share areas in our life we are struggling with and at the end we come together in agreement in prayer that God's promises are TRUE! Yes! Yes! YES! ~Trusting God for All!
