George Party of Five: Blessed

Hello......yes it has been a month since I have been on here. So much has happened since I was last on. I am excited to say that my blog is in the middle of a makeover that I won.(Thank you Amy and CJ!!!!) I about fell off of my chair when I found out that I actually won! I appreciate Becky who is transforming my blog! I can't wait to see the finished product!

Okay, moving on to other things.............God is awesome! He continues to be faithful in spite of life's struggles! There have been so many things in my life that have been devastating whether it be relationships with family, work, life demands, and feeling stretched until you think you are completely transparent. That is how I have been feeling these days...................transparent. Now this might sound absolutely nuts to some people, but for me, this is a good way to be! I have talked before how I have felt a strong calling by God to do something that makes me question if God is sure he knows what he is doing. I know for sure what he wants me to do, and so I am finally surrendering my will to him. (This is a process mind you!) Here's the part that I am excited about. Being transparent means there is less of me......that makes room for more of HIM! Get it? Hold on, I can say it again.............being transparent is what I need to be so people see less of me and more of HIM!!!!!!!!! I have a mix of emotions with this. My human nature sees this as loss of control, which means I have to depend on someone else. My spirit nature knows that this is exactly where I need to be. I want to be transparent so people can see Jesus in me. Now, I am not perfect and I screw up. That is okay. I know I am on track for what God has called me to do. I couldn't be more excited about that! God knows what he is doing. I know that my struggles are not going to be in vain. I will run this race with my eyes on the prize, no matter how hard it gets. I keep thinking about that saying, God doesn't call the equipped, he equips the called!
