Woah, It's Monday?

Sometimes with all that is going on with the weekend I don't even realize its Monday until it hits me, and hits me hard. Today has been especially hard for me. First off, I didn't want to come to work today, I just wanted to stay in my hammock like I did yesterday(when you see the photo you will be jealous). Second, it is a very slow day, for two reasons I think. 1. It is Monday and 2. Im leaving for San Fran for the weekend on Thursday and I think the more I wish it would come the slower it gets. Finally, there is nothing exciting to do. No new projects, all the marketing is up-to-date and receiving, well, is never exciting.

With all that said, I still can't complain. The weekend was amazing. <insert relaxing picture here>

After church and after lunching for Mother's Day (Love you Mom) I spent a little time in my hammock with the Lord. It was relaxing, refreshing, revitalizing...and the list could go on. I was such at peace. I just love those moments. It allowed for me to be reassured(another "r" word) that I am exactly where God wants me to be. Constantly I want to get out and go. I want to be an active journalists now. Or I want to be in the mission field NOW (seriously). But, when I sit back and listen, just listen, I am given the ability to hear and focus on what God has to say right now.

It is easy to get uncertain and concerned about what we are supposed to be doing and where exactly we are supposed to be at 23 years old, then we get lost in the thoughts and miss what God has for us right now in this moment. We are blind to are divine appointments that have already been made for us. I continue to struggle with the fact that what I want may not be what I to be right now or ever, and where I want to be may not be the place I am supposed to be. I just have to continue to trust and listen to God (instead of the insanity of this world). He has already blessed me with so much why am I concerned that He won't continue to do the same? ("This is the stuff" by:Francesca Batistelli totally just came to mind, definitely the song that gets me going in the mornings right now.) God makes promises and He keeps His promises. Gosh, I wish that would just stick for me, I hate forgetting that.

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

Wow.

So, back to Monday, since I have nothing to do I thought I'd share the few "bored" photos I took with my iPhone. Oh, how I do appreciate my iPhone. (Yes I was still working...this was mostly during lunch)

Enjoy!

Staples could totally hire me.
