Tonight has been a good night and i feel so lucky to be where i am in life. Not only did Kris make it into the top 12 (and finally, FINALLY i stopped jumping up and down) but i had a good/refreshing time with some friends at dinner afterwards and then, praise the Lord most high...He sent me my storm that i've been craving for so long.
As i type i am sitting on my back porch in my favorite red camping chair watching the lightening, listening to the rain fall and the thunder rumble, and breathing in deep that delicious smell that only makes its self known during these wonderful storms.
It's been that slow building type of storm...the very best kind. That starts as a flicker of light across the sky and slowly builds in rumbles and wind gusts and the steady slow start to rain.
My Maker certainly knows how to pursue me :)
It's so good to know that throughout all the uncertainties that this past year has held, that I really am exactly where i feel i'm supposed to be. And that even when nothing in my life felt stable or that dependable...that never, not once, was i ever deserted or abandoned by my God. It's been a while since i've felt this purposed in life, and it's a wonderful feeling. To be able to look and see that just by trusting my Father that He has placed me in several different places where i know, without a shadow of a doubt, that i am SUPPOSED to be there.
Rain and storms always make me reflective and dreamy...it's one of the reasons i love them so much. So that is what i'm off to do now...reflect and dream.
And then sleep the deep peaceful sleep of a person that does not have to wake up at 5 am tomorrow morning. Even if that was my only reason to praise Him, i most certainly would for that!
Love.
