consider the flowers.

Today was one of those days where I have wondered if life will ever make sense on this side of Heaven... most likely it won't... but I would like to hope so.  God is so obviously working in my life.  He has given me so much favor with my photography business... even new developments today.  He is continually placing passions and dreams in my heart.  I know without a doubt that I am right where God wants me... but that doesn't mean I will be staying in this same state of living for long.  God is always requiring us to grow, improve, change... and that little bit of fear starts to creep in when I forget how small I am and how big God is.  I love the feeling of living life on the edge of my seat... where things are unpredictable and God is the only way.  I've been a little emotional this evening... I think I have lost sight of this... and the fact that the only way life makes any sense at all is in Jesus... oh, how I need Him and desire Him.  I love these poppies... standing so tall, bright, and vibrant... a moment of inspiration.

la la la la...

Oh what a week it has been.  Last weekend, I went to urgent care because of severe pain in my tailbone... to find out that I had a cyst on my tailbone.  They proceeded to drain it right then and there... most painful experience of my life.  This week has been a process of recovery.  Thank you, Jesus, for helping and healing me.  I feel like I can handle anything now. :)  (and to my dear mommy for helping me).  It has been a wonderful time to get rested up, though... didn't realize how tired I was.
