But sometimes I do ask Him to reveal more to me than what I’m seeing. Even in the midst of the release of the article in People, and the fun of the fashion show, I was lacking the faith I needed to face life. It’s being overwhelmed about the magazine and my future speaking engagements, it’s stress over the finances, it’s feeling like our family is growing out of this little house more and more every day… It was just too much yesterday and I had a bit of a breakdown. I cried to him, if He “knows the plans He has for me, plans for good and not harm” then why did I feel like everything was falling apart? I asked him to show me something I could look forward to. Something good…
Then I got this email. I can’t tell you what show yet, but a producer from a fairly known show has contacted us about doing an appearance for breast cancer awareness month. So we’re planning on going to NYC! Even better, I was so disappointed about not being able to afford to go see Chris’s sister, Katie and her husband Jason when their baby is born (due October 12) Well, now we’ll be there! Unbelievable!
I got a package delivered from Hasbro. I had entered an essay contest months ago and it turns out my essay won 4th place! So there’s $50 Christmas shopping I don’t have to worry about for the girls. That’s cool!
Then I rearranged the furniture in the living room and took all the toys to Trinity’s room so that it looks more like a family room instead of Disneyland. This helped. I rearranged the dining room and swept the floor. I measured outside how big I would like to add on to the back of the house (this is a dream, really, but it made me feel better) I started getting out of my slump and today looks better than yesterday did. Thank you, God!
Oh and Gracie found a caterpillar. Again.
