Truly, my title says it all tonight. I recently returned to work after an extended hiatus. Though I spent most of it in grad school, it's still taking some adjusting for me to get used to a schedule again. Everything has changed. My wake up time is different. My bed time is different. My free time is different.
While I'm thankful and somewhat happy with the new gig, I am frustrated by what has happened to my routine. How many of you can relate? Change can be so hard. Life has a way of throwing us curve balls and mixing everything up. At times we feel like everything is out of our control. The reality is that everything is out of our control, and that's a really good thing.
Right now I an trying to get back on track. I've fallen terribly behind on my YouVersion plan, and that disappoints me. I've been missing meeting with my Virtual Bible Study girls, too. I am carefully re-prioritizing my recently changed life, and I will be ready to grab the proverbial "bull by the horns" before too long.
He has gently reminded me that His plans for me are good ones; meant to prosper me and not hurt me. (Jer. 29:11) What changes are you dealing with in your life right now?
Rubies are rare and precious jewels. Every facet is unique. When they are broken, they can only be restored by the Creator.
