tired

today was just one of those days were I've been tired all day long. i'm very glad that i have tomorrow off. This is my third week in a row working a saturday, and i'm not enjoying it. yeah, i do get a day off during the week, but i end up working till 6:15 every night. i can't wait for next week with a 'normal' schedule.
i'm doing a women's bible study this summer with some of the ladies from my small group. we're reading a book called lies women believe...it's not too bad so far. i'm looking forward to the discussion tomorrow night. this week's chapter was about lies we believe about ourselves. i'll post more after we have discussion tomorrow night.

So last night was our 4th and final swimming lesson. Annika loved every single one. And mom and dad had a ball too. She did great with going under water and kicking and swimming to the side of the pool. It was a fun experience to have with my little one.

Chaos

I really don't have much to talk about in this little blog, so I'll probably just ramble on for a few paragraphs every few days or so. I'm hoping that this will work something like an accountability thing for me. I need to get better about sharing with others how God works in my life, so that's what the hope of this is for me.

Saturday night at church Brady preached about how God continuously brings us thru chaos into order, and ultimately into His kingdom. This had me thinking about the chaos in my life and where chaos repeats over and over again. I really thought a lot about my job and career and where God wants me. I feel like I continually enter a pattern of being happy for a while and then it turns to chaos...either something will change, or my attitude changes. I recognize this pattern, and I'm trying to change it. What I took from the sermon this weekend was working harder at turning to God to bring order to my chaos.
