Christmas time!

As we approach this time of year I am filled with so many different emotions daily. Some days I am so excited it takes over me. With lights and cookies to bake while having a fire and snow with hot cocoa... I just get overwhelmed with everything wonderful! Then there are the days that are hard... knowing that I am so far from what I have always known and trying to keep God's perspective verses mine!

God is a wonderful God and He blesses me with people and opportunities here everyday. I can really and truly say that I love being married! That I love the cold weather! That I love teaching! That does not mean that I don't miss being in College, or in Texas, or with the people that have made me who I am! It just means that I am trying to see God's big picture instead of my small one.

Being married is exciting but it is a very challenging process. You learn things about yourself that you don't like! You learn how selfish you are and how hurtful you can be. But when you truly mean to devote yourself to someone and they do the same for you... it is the most amazing and rewarding experiences God ever created! So this Christmas take time to enjoy where you are in your life... whether that be in high school, college, single, dating, or married! Because wherever you are... Christ is with you in everything... and He is the reason for this season! Truly!
