Fresh Start

If you don't know this is a brand new blog.  My previous blog was  A Woman At Home, but now that I am back working outside of my home I decided it was time to start something new.  I am praying daily for those who decide to read my blog.  Some days the posts will make you feel all warm inside, but some days you may not like me because of what I am writing. Love me Anyway!!! I  mean no harm. I have been so timid before because I feared what people may say or think.

When I told some that I wouldn't write in that blog anymore I was shocked at the response. Most were saying that was not right for me to take them on this journey with me, and to leave them stranded. I found that quite funny.  Who knew that this blog would touch so many?! That sure was not my intent. Totally in shock. Who knew this simple blog that I started to help me with my emotions and feelings after becoming a mom would be so helpful to so many women. That's nothing but God! He had and still has purpose for me.  You too just in case you were wondering. 

Thank you to those who have followed, encouraged, laughed, cried,  text, or whatever role you played during my journey at home with my babies.  I even thank those who made hurtful comments about stay at home moms, breastfeeding, or any other topic that I had the opportunity to facilitate discussion.

After my first week at work, I enjoy what I am doing.  I am an office manager at a law firm.  I respect my boss and he respects me.  I had an awful work experience before, and grateful that I am removed from that and using my skills in a different field.

I am adjusting to waking up at 6 or 6:30 a.m., getting Addisyn ready, while Rance gets Abbye together. This is all new for me.  I do miss my TEA sisters at Heartland Church on Tuesday mornings though. Rance picks up Abbye and I pick up Addisyn.  We found a home-based daycare thanks to my sister/friend referring us. I feel at ease everyday when I drop her off.  It is so true, God does know best. When you trust HIM he will never lead you astray.  I used this scripture Proverbs 3:5-6 in the last blog, but I feel it needs repeating.  Maybe you should write it on a sticky note and place it on your mirror. Repeat it daily if you choose. You may just start to believe it. 

Proverbs 3:5-6(NIV) Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your way submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.

 

 





 

I never thought I would say that I am a proud wife and mother. It brings me great joy to serve my family daily.  Yes I said serve. Years ago I thought serving my husband was crazy. I am so glad God got me straight on that. Servitude should be something we ALL should try.  You cannot show genuine love without servitude and gratitude. It just doesn't happen.  Well that is another topic for another day folks.

 

1Peter 4:10 (NIV) Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms.
