I had a beautiful plan to sleep most of the afternoon. That did not work out so much. I am just getting ready to go to sleep now and it is night. I want to be in bed by 9. I know it is so amazing being single and childless! I feel really pretty awesome about life right now. I need to write the back cover copy for my book yet. I cannot believe that I have not started on it. I could have done it like six months ago. Now there is the deadline in my own head.
It is pretty crazy to imagine this time is almost upon me. On the odd side of things, I thought I would just pick up the first draft to start writing after a two year break. I never new it would be two and a half years to the publication. It seemed really fast when I put it like that.
Life seems fast when I think about other things also. Like how I have only been sober for almost two years. This Thanksgiving it will be two years. How much happens in two years of following!
I really need to quit being so hard on myself! Seriously! Yeah, it would be nice if I was unbroken, but I am an earth-creature, so that is not reality. Reality is Jesus is in me, but I still am on earth.
This birthday present to myself has continued to be an incredible gift. Here’s to being 31 and experiencing God in amazing ways! Next year I may torture myself with just barely enough time to make it through my day, but this year I am going to enjoy the presence of my King in liberal amounts!
“For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.” – Jeremiah 29:11
