its me again

wow, can you believe it I am here again. I am taking the first step back into blogging world. I really have no excuse. In fact I have had tons of time and have been a lazy blah bump on a log since January began. I hate how this new year has started for me, but I am beginning to see the light and come out of my slump. I will say this is in large due the my husband's past 2 sermons. See my facebook if you don't know what I am talking about. But really I have been a slug, kinda sullen, boring, lazy, in retreat mode. Which if you know me, is pretty rare, well not the lazy part. But I have taken God's word and Ritchey's reminding me of it, in Philippians, to REJOICE, GIVE THANKS, and to THINK of NOBLE And RIGHT THINGS. And you know what, God's says that for a reason, because it really does usher in peace, as that scripture says. It may start out as lip service or motions, but now my heart is catching up with my actions. So I hope my blog will pick back up, as will my zest for life, my love of the Lord and my service to others. I am making dinner dates, inviting kids friends over, and blasting the praise music (that helps me rejoice and give thanks). God is good. Oops, gotta run, my hubby is home.

  1. melissa, i can't wait to listen to ritchey's last sermon! i'm putting it on my ipod to run with this afternoon. and i've been feeling similarly- blah, tired, a bit grumpy... then i was able to have some uninterrupted time in the Word & prayer- what a difference. i hate that i forget how much my heart is dependent on being close with the Lord... i need Him! : )
