Changes
Here comes the change. It's a new year, I am about to move to New Orleans, I am going to get married, and my fiance is a pastor. He got the call yesterday from a church that voted him in. We are super excited. God has blessed us abundantly, and we don't deserve any of it. For a Christian, at times the line seems almost invisible between pride and confidence; and, sin scurries and twists in riddles. There is always a point with me where I think I am smart and have achieved things based on my own works, but God has shown me that I am born absolutely deprived. The beauty of the gospel is that Jesus helps us live through a totally hopeless situation. He took the wrath on our behalf. Everything we have touched has been created by God; therefore, our works are not achievable without God in the first place. I'm reflecting on all these changes, and it's hard for me to grasp exactly what to do, which proves I have no control. Honestly, I don't want control. I just want to live daily in the right direction. I am rambling now. Anyway, I am so excited for Tim. This is a big responsibility though, and being a preacher's wife is a big responsibility too.
