My it's been awhile

Wow!!! Is the only word I can say for the past few months. I wanted to start blogging at least once a week. But clearly God had other plans. After my post in July I wanted to start writing about my journey as a new wife and honeymoon pregnancy. (Because what happened in Vegas came back with us.) I had it all planned out. However, my life just didn't keep up with that plan. And I will share those stories soon with you in the next few weeks. I just wanted to share what's happening now.

I never knew, nor did I want to experience the life of Jonah. Recently that is exactly what had happened to me. No I didn't get swallowed up by a giant whale. But I did experince an "in the belly" stage in my life. I thought I could use the excuse of pregnancy, however, that didn't quite work. I can never put what God has called me to do on hold, though I thought I could. I am not saying that I won't ever rest, I just can't tell God, "I am not working for you right now. I will pick up where I left off in about 4, 5, or 7 months." Which was exactly what I said. Because of that, God's response was to put me in a hole for 3 months (will explain more in a later post what kind of hole it was). It took me until the moment of writing this post to know what God was doing.

There are a lot of people who are in need of the fruit that I bare. And for that reason I will strive to operate in my purpose, which is to encourage others about how to live an all around healthy and righteous lifestyle.
