I’ve been thinking about doing this for awhile–starting a blog, that is. In fact, I started one about a year ago but never shared it with anyone; there just seemed to be so much pressure associated it with it. However, a good (and new) friend of mine recently inspired me with her posts–though some were short, they reflected a peaceful and contemplative person on the other side of the computer screen. Just reading them reminded me that I’m not the only who…(insert isolating thoughts here). This friend, along with another, threw a bridal shower for me today. They both are such genuinely kind and thoughtful gals…I’m so fortunate to know them. Though the weather was snowy, a few women from work came and it meant so much to me.

I doubt I will write much before the move. I will spare you the drawn-out monologue of my longing to be near to my husband; it seems that is what my emotional life consists of at this point. Still yet, I am reminded that trials (whatever they may be) merely draw us nearer to the Lord. So, while it may feel as though a part of me is missing, I know that I can be spending this time alone investing more holistically in my relationship with God.
