I have been pretty busy at work, with school, and at home the past few months - so much has happened. Tomorrow is already scan day again...I will admit that I was too busy to really dwell on it, but this day has been getting bigger and bigger in my mind. I was bummed to have to work Sunday, as I was really feeling the strong pull to get to church that day. Pastor Scott closes church every Sunday with a prayer to God for our church family to “use them real good” as we all go out into our world for the week.
I really enjoy my job, a lot. There are days that I wonder if I’m where I’m supposed to be, am I doing what I’m best at? Am I using my skills and abilities the best way possible? I don’t know if I am all of the time, but I was definitely in the right place on Sunday.
There have been some things that have happened in my family the past few months that have just been really cruddy and we’ve cried, we’ve hurt, we’ve been scared and experienced immense sadness. There are joyous occasions happening as well, but sometimes it’s just too darn hard to see the light through the dark. I met a family yesterday that helped me see the light. They gave me hope and a plan, and allowed me to help them at the same time. I think that we were both “used real good” yesterday and today.
