Fresh Start.

It's been a minute since I've posted anything. I can't decide if it's because I have been too busy or a lack of anything interesting to say....or both. I have been praying a lot lately and God has really been working in my life! I can tell you that I feel like I've been presented a fresh slate and God is saying, "start over". Start over with what, you ask?? Everything! I can tell you that I have been way more positive in the past month or so. I make it a point to find the good in everything. I know what some of you are thinking....that's not possible. Well, it really is. I can have a really, really bad day at work and go home and vent to Justin and Angela but at the end of the day, I'm thanking God that I even have a job. See...positive!
Another thing that I have just recently been thinking about is how lightly the word "judgement" is used in society. You can look at a person with a frown and you are all of a sudden judging that person for something they did or something they are. All I can say is, take your "j" word and put it in your pocket to save for when someone is really judging you or someone you love. So many people waste their time on focusing on one tiny thing that someone mentioned in passing and make a huge deal out of it when they didn't even MEAN anything by it! Use your precious time to focus on more important things like salvaging the relationships that you have with the people you love and more importantly...God.
One of the most important things I've learned recently...today, actually....is that submitting to your husband (as the Bible commands) will do more good than bad. So many women focus on "women's rights" and feel like they should be held on a pedestal because they were looked down upon years ago. Well, get off your high horse because submission isn't a bad thing. Something as small as asking how his day was and listening with your full attention is submission. Also, the husband is the leader in the home, therefore, his word should be taken into very serious consideration on every decision. This is an issue of mine that I know I need to work on. My point is, submission does not equal abuse, it equals obedience.

Just sharing some turning wheels in my mind at the moment!
