Exhausted

Exhaustion. I feel it in my bones this week. Guess I can attribute it to the stomach bug I had last week or is it the whole Halloween hoopla that goes with teaching elementary school. Either way, I just can't seem to get enough sleep. Never do I turn lights out by 9pm but this week I have struggled to make it to 9.

There are so many things I want to attend in the next few days and I am stubbornly trying to go ahead with plans even as my body is saying I need to skip a few activities and rest. How can I possibly skip a leader meeting for Celebrate Recovery when we are just launching this incredible God given program for our town. Tomorrow night is all for me, Winterjam in Albuquerque with Matthew West, Newsboys and Kutlass. I have been looking forward to this concert for weeks and spending time in worship with my amazing daughter and wonderful friend, Pat.

Kutlass' song 'What Faith Can Do' was the proof we were given of Ryan's heart for Christ before he died. He said it was his life song. After he died it got us through. I want to listen to this incredible song live on the 5th 19 months after my son's death. There is hope for the world in Christ and Kutlass expresses that hope perfectly in their song.

Ron is off on a train to San Diego to give a talk on his petroglyphs. I am jealous of the 18 hours of nothingness he will have on the train. Just a relaxed time to read, visit, sleep, and ponder. I guess my weekend could be just as relaxing if I choose to skip a few things and veg. Praying for direction on my activities this weekend. Hopefully, I will listen when direction is given.

In Him,
Joyful

  1. Hi friend, thanks for stopping by. It has been a while since I visited your neck of the woods. I think everyone has had some kind of viral streak that is going around. I am not at my best yet but it is better. Hope you can enjoy the upcoming holidays. Blessings
