Today was the day! This was the day we moved here for, this was the day that Journey - Queens started weekly services! This was the day that has been in the works for so long, that has been prayed over, fasted over, and talked about. Today was the day! Things went great! There were about 100 people, and 17 new people! Thank you Jesus! Thank you for what you have started, for the great things that we will see happen in this area b/c of what You are going to do! What a relief too, that people came, new people came and things went well! Its a good day! Thank you to you all who have been thinking of us, who have been praying w/ us, and for you have help support this day!
Little girl and I also went to visit a friend this evening, who just had a baby. It was so good to see them, and catch up a bit. Her baby boy is too cute, and she is a great mom to him. Its amazing, as I was w/ her, how much just comes natural to you when your a new mom. Then I look @ little girl and realize how big shes gotten. And how much I feel like I still don't know! When you become a first time mom though, you develop this great sense of just knowing what to do, and you can fake it real well! It's an amazing art : )
As we are getting into the swing of new things now - my little gig picking up and dropping off a little girl, and Journey -Queens starts to meet weekly - I hope that I can adjust well. Sometimes I have a hard time getting use to new ways of doing things, and w/ change. But I'm looking forward to whats to come. I hope that I will have a peace about things, w/ my role in our family, my role as a friend, my role as . . . . whatever I may be doing. I feel like this move has been much better than our move to Buffalo - I've said it before - but I'm starting to feel out of place. I don't like this feeling. I want to fit in, I want to belong, and be apart of things. I know, being apart of Journey -Queens is being apart of something. I mean personally though. Maybe I just want to be happy were I am, and maybe I have a hard time, or even problem just being happy w/ were I'm @ in life/geographically/financially . . . . everything! I need to learn to be happy w/ were I am, and what I have - or don't have - what I'm doing, and who I am . . . . . . . hard things to do; for me. Anyway, what I want is for this season - this fall, this back to 'normal' routine of life - is to have a good one. I guess it will be as good as I make it. And maybe, hopefully, I'll make it great! I'll learn to enjoy where/what I'm doing @ this moment in MY life - to being content w/ myself; thats good place to start.
