Life

Where to begin. It's been a while and I know that my last post was all about 31 being the best year yet and I really believe that it could be. However, there have been some difficult circumstances in life so far this year.
  1. Stressed out parents who are preoccupied and that I have felt disconnected from, which if you know me at all is a big deal especially when I get to point 3
  2. My grandma is at the place in life where it is time to move to an assisted living center. That has been hard for my dad along with the other stressors in his life.
  3. One week after my last post I was laid off from my job.
Despite these things, I am still convinced that life is good and it will be an amazing year. I don't know what's going to happen, but I know that God is bigger than all of this and anything else that may come my way. His plans are far better than I can imagine. That is why I have hope.

Already, in each of the three situations above, I have seen God working.
  1. I have my parents back. :)
  2. Grandma is open to and has agreed that this is the best choice - something that she hasn't been willing to do in the past.
  3. No new job yet, but there are some possibilities. And the silver lining is that I have enjoyed the last two weeks off, spending time with friends and just chillin'. :) Plus, I know that there is a job out there just for me (I'm just not in a big rush to find it :)).

Life is good, because God is good.
