You never know what will happen today…

Erik and I have been on a roller coaster over the past few months with how much has taken place in different directions of our lives.  As a result, we have determined that it is almost pointless to plan out the day in too much detail because we will no doubt be on a completely different track by mid-morning.

This isn’t always a bad thing.  In fact, it can be absolutely exhilarating when things you never could have believed possible all of the sudden begin to unfold.  It can also be a little hard to know exactly how to respond.  I always say that God created me for His own entertainment and I know He has been laughing up there a lot lately, so I’m glad I can be of service.

This summer has brought some deep hardships but it has also brought us to new place of belief in what the future has in store.  A future where I am telling all of the stories I have been given to share and Erik is composing more music than he has in years.  All of this with a 6 year old and an 8 year old along for the ride.  It’s hard not to be overwhelmed with energy and excitement.

Even in all of the new reasons for joy and enthusiasm, there will no doubt be lessons that we continue to learn along the way.  If we don’t learn them right away, we will be taught them again in another life adventure.  Right now, the lesson is to realize we can plan every detail of tomorrow but the truth is, if we let it, tomorrow could be even more amazing than we can fathom.
