Something New

Well, I'm not going to say much today because I'm getting ready to head upstairs and spend some quality time with my hubby and daughter.  I do want to say, however, that I am glad it's Thanksgiving.  This year more than ever I have been so keenly aware of the many blessings the Lord has bestowed on me.  I can't seem to thank Him enough.  My words are inadequate in their expression, but I know He knows my heart and how I truly feel.

It seems that I have passed a threshold into something new in my life.  I can't place my finger on it, but I feel lighter, like something has been lifted from my soul.  I know God has done something.  It must be that fervent prayer, that fight of faith, that standing firm.  I know I haven't done anything different, but I have stuck with Him.  I kept on even when I haven't felt like it.  I've pressed and pressed, prayed and prayed, pursued and pursued, and He definitely rewards those who diligently seek Him!

Like I said, I can't pinpoint what has happened, but I know that I know something has happened.  For now, I'm just going to rest in that knowing that the Lord knows what's best and when it's best.  Now don't get me wrong.  I can't say that any circumstances have changed at this point, but I've changed.  With that, I have a feeling that the circumstances are about to change.

With that said, I just want to say thank you for reading my blog.  I pray that it inspires you, encourages you, and challenges you.  Have an awesome Thanksgiving!  If you haven't put much thought into it, start deliberately thinking about all that you are thankful for and make sure you let the Lord know.
