Tunnel Vision

I'm here, I'm here. Haven't run away. Sorry for the silence. Getting focussed, fighting a strategic battle, stepping into rest and letting my God take the burden, because it's time.

Standing on His promises. The only thing worth standing on. Still doing the happy dance, each and every day. His Word, speaking it, devouring it, kissing my day. It is truly possible to live the good life while in the midst of a storm. Sunshine all around. His peace.

Focussing on Him, my role as wife and mommy, preparing for a new year of homeschool, celebrating our 13th anniversary, rocking the house with his praises, a 6 year olds birthday party on the horizon, taking time to breathe. And that's this week.

I'm focussing on the best, what lies at the end of my tunnel. So many distractions can tempt my attention to wander. My Jesus. My hubby and kids. Growing in faith and love. Yep, proud to say I'm developing tunnel vision. What is at the end of your tunnel?

Still in the tunnel...waiting to see the light at the end of it. Not happening yet...waiting on Almighty God and the cloud to start movin'...then we will see the light:-)

Trying to love the clouds,

Sara, I thought of you today as I was driving. I had been thinking of Jill's last post when Scott was teaching the children about being splashed when they are in the pool. It was an analogy to being in the water with the Lord and not standing far away. I thought of your splashin' posts of joy. And I smiled.

News of a friend's death was so sad. I wrote about it on Heart Choices.

Love,
Debbie
