This evening, as I sit in the living room watching the Atlanta Braves home opener with my husband after almost a year of marriage, I realize that I am perfectly content. I am ecstatic with where I am in my life, not to mention who I am with. :)
I have always wanted to be a teacher, hands-down. Not to be egotistical, either, because I will always remember how I was MCMS' "second choice," but I am good at what I do.
I am finally learning how to balance being the teacher I always wanted to be and the duties of the wife I always wanted to be.
The husband I love is a strong, Christian leader in the family. He is who God created for me.
I am the member of two very loving, understanding, and encouraging families.
I also count it a true blessing to be a member of the Lord's church. The joy I feel in the sweet, simple services is unlike anything I have ever felt at any time at a church in my life.
Even though I could definitely stand to change some things, I am on the road to changing them, like my weight and healthiness.
God has blessed me beyond belief, and I am SO thankful for everything in my life.
"Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him, endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God."
Hebrews 12: 1-2
"Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him, endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God."
