Bliss

Today my heart is full of joy! I woke up and felt like today would be pretty mundane...and it was. However it was mundane in a perfect and exciting way. I know I am losing my mind--that's what happens when I blog before I go to sleep...which is something I hope to stop doing because I want my blog posts to best represent ME and what's going on in my life not just for people that read it but for myself! I want to be able to look back in a year and see what I did on Thursday May 19, 2011.
Even though today was not overly exciting or eventful, it was perfect to me. I woke up and made a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich (since my mother made one for herself this morning she so graciously made enough bacon for me to make myself a sandwich when I woke up). No one was home so I got to watch my ridiculous reality shows, while eating my sandwich and sipping my coffee, that are my guilty pleasure...I will not even name them because I am utterly ashamed of myself for watching them :) hehe! After I lounged around I decided to venture out to the dock to see if the snake from yesterday had returned. He had not but I vow to catch and kill that monster before he hurts any of my precious dogs!
After my stroll I decided that I wanted to take some Capri Sun drinks to BT's softball game tonight for him and his friends after they got done playing. Well I also decided I wanted to make some brownies. And some sausage balls. Baking warms my heart!!!
After I baked and baked and watched "My Best Friend's Wedding", I showered then off to watch BT's football scrimmage I went. After the scrimmage BT and I went to eat with Morgan and Colby McCommon :) Love them! And thennnn we went to watch BT play softball for/with Northridge Christian! I love seeing him so active and happy! And I am so proud of him for always being on the go!

So as you can see....there was not much very special about my day. Which I am fine with. The important thing is that on the way home tonight I was reflecting on the day's events and caught myself smiling for no reason!!! I literally asked myself, "Why am I so happy??" God has blessed me with some of the most amazing people in my life. I have never seen Him move in my life so much as he has in the past couple of weeks when I needed Him more than I ever have. And the killer part is that I do not deserve His grace, His comfort, and the peace of mind He has given me. It is amazing. Truly amazing. It makes me want to open my heart and give and give to everyone that walks past me! I don't know what is in store for me and that is FINE with me!! I am excited for tomorrow!!! Why you may ask? I have absolutely no idea! That is the beauty of it. I have learned that I can't worry about tomorrow. The way God has led the past few days of my life have been wonderful. They have not been very exciting or special but yet they have been life changing for me. They have shown me that there is more to life than being hurt and worried over someone who has been hurting me.

I have LOVED LOVED LOVED attending Northridge Christian Church in Milledgeville. When I go to the services on Sunday I never want them to end!! I love singing and I get tears in my eyes when I sing the words of the songs to the Lord because I know I am not worthy of anything I have in my life. Yet God has still chosen to bless me with people to help pick me up when I have been down and thought I had no hope of ever being happy again. I attended the Wednesday night dinner and Bible study with my parents last night and my heart was filled with joy just being around people that are so welcoming and gracious. And I loved listening to Pastor Craig remind us all about what God has done for us.

On a different note....I want to start putting pictures on my blog but I am going to need a tutorial! I shall console my blogging expert friend Anna Grace :) Until next time....Much love
