Where has time gone? The journey does not stop, that’s for
sure! I’m in a season of go-go-go and for someone who likes to have a little down
time and enjoys a bit of home-body-ness…this season of life has provided some
challenges in regards to time. If there’s one thing I am learning, my time is
not my own. When I consider coaching a job or the amount of time I spend vs.
the amount I am paid, my perspective goes out the door. When I live in the
perspective that it is a calling, it’s amazing how much more the Lord is able
to use me. When I truly surrendered it is ridiculous how much more blessed I have
been. My eyes are off myself and I’m able to give and love ten fold. And
well…let’s be honest, it’s hard for me to not love my team--though I can only
love them when it is an extension of God’s love for me. On my own I am
incapable and clearly insufficient.
One verse that has been impressed on my heart and mind these
last few weeks has been Ephesians 3:20, “Now to him who is able to do
immeasurably more than all we ask for or imagine, according to his power that
is at work in us.” Trusting in the truth of this verse I have begun to pray more
boldly for desires of my own heart, for those of others and for ways I long to see Him work. I’m expecting to see fruit and in some cases I recognize I may not be
able to see the fruit until heaven, but that doesn’t change my prayer. The Lord
continues to break my heart for what breaks His and that’s my ultimate desire.
