Lately I have been really overwhelmed with just about everything. I feel like my life is in perpetual count down mode. I snap at my kids more often than I'd like to, I get frustrated in one of my oh-too-short calls with the hubs, etc.
I have been feeling a bit convicted about all this. God tells us that in Matthew 6:25-34 that we need not worry. We gain nothing from that, all we do is lose faith. How can we question what happens when we know that God has it all under control. I'm not saying that I always understand His plans or always love them, but I do know that His will is perfect.
Now for a Russell update- he is doing better than he was a couple of weeks ago. Some things have been changed and this is helping take a little stress off Russell. He is working 6 days on and 1 day off [most of the time...] so extra prayers for his endurance are always appreciated :)
On another note, our church had a vision [missions] conference this Saturday. I went and between Dr. Muarry [click to listen to two of his message's] being such an amazing speaker, and the Robbie Seay band, it was a great day. It was also awesome to see so many young people [jr and sr high] excited about missions. Dr. Muarry challenged us with the fact that 2 billion people will never hear the gospel unless we bring it to them. I am currently praying about a summer mission trip and will update ya'll when a decision has been made.
I hope you are all well! Sorry I haven't been in much contact with most of ya'll, this year has just been keeping me MUCH busier than I ever imagined it would, but this [the lack of contact] is something I hope to rectify soon!
Love,
CDL
