be-ing

a woman's mind is as complex as the contents of her handbag;

even when you get to the bottom of it,

there is always something at the bottom to surprise you

..and i am confident of this:

i will see the goodness of the Lord

in the land of the living.

Wait for the Lord;

be strong and take heart

and wait for the Lord

psalm 27:13-14

I'm not one to make new year's resolutions but when you have a bunch of friends who create a space for you to do it, you end up being swept in without really knowing it. One of my goals (which now i'm not so sure if i knew what i was getting myself into..) was to not stay in my comfort zone. So here i'm into month 2 of the new year. With the flurry of events that have accummulated over the weeks, i've been stretched beyond myself. I've seen a tangible result of PRAYer (Pouring out, Reaching forward, Asking & Yielding). I've seen goodness come out of labouring hard. I've learnt (no i'm learning..) to say sorry. I'm learning to forgive. I've learnt that my home is where i most taste grace and patient love. I'm learning to worship and declare Him Lord when so much else pulls my attention away from the Creator.

I had an epiphany in the shower on Saturday..

If you don't lead, you don't grow.

Stretched.
