fall is my favorite

it is always strange when you move to a new place. and maybe this post will be somewhat repetitive but i must speak my mind. you never quite know when you fit in. you never quite know how much of an effort to make. at least i don't.

i'm not very good at meeting people. making friends. being personable. then again. maybe i am. it is just that i feel uncomfortable in situations where i know no one. maybe it is a confidence issue. something i should work on. that's more than likely what it is.

i tribute my need for confidence to a season of growth. a season of learning. i feel like the season is changing, and that i am entering this new season a more mature, more responsible, better, and stronger person.

i am just not sure the confidence is there. i guess that comes with time. we will wait and see.

change is occurring in my life on a daily basis. but it is all relative. it is what i, what we, what drew and i, make of it. i am so excited for this change but i feel like it is missing something.

community. we are still striving to find and to build a community here in the mountains. we are searching for a church home, after leaving one that we so dearly loved. we compare everything to reality. when reality should be the spiritual growth and sense of community we gain from a group of people we call church. our 'reality' can be anywhere...

god is still working. still growing. still teaching. still learning us. and will be for a long time. the community. the confidence. and all of the blessing come from him. and only HIM.

i am reaching out. praying. asking for community. for confidence. for time management. for wise decisions. for our lords guidance and blessing over everything we do and every decision we make.

the seasons are changing.
and i am most excited....
