Randomness

I've been promoted. First promotion ever. I have now started my traing as Shift Supervisor at Starbucks. Quite exciting-- means more challenges, more responsibility, more organization on me. But I'm all about that stuff.

Anyway.
Lately it has been work, school, sleep. Or school, work, sleep. Nothing to over exciting.
I am really looking forward to going away for Christmas. It will be so nice to be with family and to relax.

Life seems pretty dry. Nothing really quenching my thirst. Ya know?
I think I will get back into painting some more.

Ever feel like you want to just catch a plane to a foreign country for some excitement? I think I may have to chat with my husband more about this... make it happen.

This blog lived up to the over all title ... Pieces of me.

Deep Peace.

It's been a long time...

Well, well...
It has been quite a while since I have been blogging. All I can say is... I've been quite the busy bee.
I have been taking courses online and working and being in community-- then sleeping and doing it all over again. God has been good through this busy time.
I feel like I am actually falling into a balance some where. Where right at the beginning I was a bit overwhelmed with it all.
Now I feel that I can take a sigh of relief. No, I am not done with all my courses BUT I feel I have found a balance.

On another note-- lately God has really been stirring me more and more about our calling to take care of ALL of creation. That means to the tree in your backyard to the little child working in a sweat shop. As far as the action I can take into these things-- God is still revealing Himself to me... but for now I've been buying Fair Trade Certified products, so that I don't partake in something that underpays the worker for-- buying more organic, which is better for the environment and better for you-- sponsoring a child-- collecting money for Africa...
Yeah, so.. there is a lot more that God is teaching me, and I am a willing student.
Humm..

Where can I go from here?
Only God can show me...

Deep Peace.
