If we are having a coffee date today – welcome! I’m so
glad that you are here! My coffee
drinking has changed a bit since the beginning of this year…it’s just a plain
cup of black coffee now. But, if yours
has a delicious creamer in it – I envy you! Regardless, welcome to the coffee date.
I thought I would
try some new things on the blog this year.
Not really sure why – but I do feel the nudge to move in a different
direction. I have no idea about this
direction – I’m only taking it day by day.
BUT…right now I know I love coffee dates and I love Jesus. So, I’m bringing these two together on the
blog.
If we were sitting
together right now – I’d probably ask you how your Christmas went. I’d tell you that ours was great – long enough,
but not long enough. If that makes any
sense? I really do enjoy when the kids are off from school and we get that
extra time together – along with a much need break from the normal. But then, I look forward to when the normalcy
returns.
I would tell you
that for 3 weeks I have been sick and I am on three antibiotics – so I am
starting just now to feel human again. I’d
promise you that I was not contagious because I’m on 3 antibiotics now.
I’d ask you if you
had a “One Word” for 2015. I’d tell you
that mine is “Enough” – that I picked this word because I do too much and
that I don’t have to do more, or be more, or try harder to feel needed, loved
or even to feel like I belong. That
Jesus is my enough. That His grace is
enough. That Jesus embraced His not
enough. That Jesus says, “Offer all you
are – all you have – to Me! I will turn
that into abundance beyond all you can imagine and that all things are possible
with Me.” That by saying “enough” – I stay
vertical and I don’t go horizontal.
Staying vertical meaning only focusing on Jesus. I feel like this is sort of my spiritual
reset this year.
Before we would have
to go, I’d ask you what you were currently reading. Because I do love a good
book – especially in my hands so that I can smell the pages when I read! I’d tell you that right now I am reading “Me
Before You” by Jojo Moyes, and that it is an amazing read and that you
should read it too.
So, thank you for
stopping by and having a virtual coffee date with me. Let’s do it again!
“And
God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all
times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.” ~2 Cor.
