Why is that when I have the words, I don't have the time, and when I have the time, I don't have the words?
I have been blankly starting at this blank page for way too long and I just don't think this is going to come out right. But I am going to try anyway.
Here are the thoughts which are taking root in my head and heart and which deserve to be more eloquently expressed... particularly the last ones...
Moving too often.
Finding myself afraid of committing to a new community.
Realizing this.
We've been here for a year.
Time to move past fear.
Finding myself very, very blessed by the community here.
Loving the moms in our church.
Loving this community.
Loving being known and accepted.
Loving being able to bless and be blessed.
So excited and encouraged about what God is doing!
The end.
(See, I told you the words are refusing to come out eloquently today!)
Jamie, I haven't been Eloquent in aeons :) I've given up.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that you are loving it there. Is it weird living where we grew up? Do you have to rediscover it? I'm so excited to come visit... it feels so far away now.
You linked to my blog!!!!!!!
ReplyDelete*ahem* Sorry. I've never been linked before, that got me a little over-excited. :-)
I love this post, whether it's eloquent or not. It feels kind of like you were listening in on my coffee group at Lay Witness, and this is your version of some of the things I said.
I am so blessed to be building a friendship with you. :-)
Isn't community one of the best blessings ever? I am SO glad you are making friends with other moms :) I can understand your fear of committing - I have been there before. :(
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see you this weekend!
