Sometimes in life, you need a break from something that you know is good and something you enjoy, but you just need a change-up for a while. Something to stir up inside you what you need to figure out. Time to decide what is important and what's not. We are at that place in life, once again. We visited this "place" one year ago, and now we're back.
We aren't quite sure where we'll go from here...we're thinking that we'll head back to our "roots" so to speak - back to the church sweet hubby & I have attended off and on between newborns, sick kids, life's happenings, and etc - since 1995. It's a church that reminds me of who I want to be, who I was in the past, and of who the 2 of us were before we had kids...not sure if that's where we'll end up in the long run, but it's a good start for now.
We did need a change-up for a bit...we gave it our all...we were really involved at another church, met some incredible people, our kids had a blast, but we're so excited to be heading back to something a bit more familiar and closer to our hearts. Summer will be the perfect time to transition, hang out with the kids, get into a new groove during the warmer months...and soaking up some of the stuff we've missed. Life is good.
I love how God brings you around...even when YOU think you need a change-up (and maybe you really do)...He grants you that time - if for no other reason, just to show you that what you had was what He wanted for you all along.
"And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose."
