looking back...

reflections from my post a couple days ago...

man, i don't know why i felt the need to post some of these intense internal thinking of mine, but i did what i did and what's done is done, right?
well, i take that back, i do know why, b/c it was something i feel/felt very passionate about...i wanted to share my thoughts be venerable, and to some extent become accountable for what i know it important in this life... and sure enough i had someone care, my mom, she spoke her thoughts about what i wrote, with some concern. i tend to be all or nothing. she impressed upon me the significance of balance in this lifetime, and while we may differ in what we consider, of absolute value in this life; i see where she is coming from, she voiced concern for the worldly part and i needed that. i needed to be grounded and realize the responsibilities I'll have, as i choose to start a family and raise children, with my husband one day...

so after talking to my mom this morning, i have calmed down a little and seen it is all about B A L A N C E and working with what you have. if you plan to raise a family, it is about finding the balance of what you need, not want, and while doing that, implementing a life lived for Christ all along the way. we can serve, we can speak up, we can go on short term missions, we can open our schedules for what He has planned for us...

i am sure this post will be reflected on several more times... but right now, i am thinking most likely we'll stay on track with our worldly plans here, but try to become further educated and just see where the Lord takes us, together, as a family, along the way...i just want to be devoted to Christ.
