Today has been a rough day. No reason. I've just been down. I feel guilty about feeling this way because God is so good and I know He's got this. One way or another, He's got this.
I've been completing paperwork today for my retirement. It's hasn't been a big deal so far (but Social Security is next), but it's just been a reminder of the new phase of life that I am entering and I don't like it. Neal suggested we sit down and start planning for things for me to do after retirement. Hopefully, that will help me feel better. I know I want to help with Staycation at my church as much as possible. Cave Spring started doing this event last year during spring break. We spend the week serving the community and helping to meet various needs. It is quite tiring so I know I won't be able to help as much as I'd like, but it will be better than nothing. I'm really happy about the work that my church is doing in our community for our Savior. It really shows how we can be His Hands and Feet. Now that I'm about to be retired, I want to be able to do so much more. I know I have limitations, but I also know He will equip me with what I need. The bottom line is that He doesn't need me to spread His Gospel, but He graciously allows me to do so.
What does the future hold for me? I have no idea, but I want to take each day as it comes and enjoy each one. Yes, today has been more of a dreary one, but I was able to be dreary with my husband and for that I am blessed. Neal has been so great through all of this. God truly knew what He was doing when He brought the two of us together. What a surprise! LOL!!
I just have to keep on keeping on. God's got this. When I have trouble persevering, He's got this. I just need to keep His Word close.
"You are my refuge and my shield; I have put my hope in Your Word." ~ Psalm 119:114
Indeed I have. Thank You, sweet Jesus. Thank You.
