Best Lent Ever

Well, hello there!

Yes, yes...I know it's been months since I've been here.  Honestly, life has been a whirlwind since mid-December.  Just as soon as I think I can catch my breath, a whole new wave crashes in.  It hasn't been all bad.  It hasn't been all good, either.  It's just been.

I have a growing list of posts I still want to make.  You know, finally get to downloading the Christmas pictures from my camera.  Write a little bit about how we celebrated the holidays in our new home.  Then there's all of this work that keeps coming.  I would like to decompress a little here on that topic too!  And basketball and now baseball has consumed more time than I really thought...oh and lacrosse.  So much to catch up on.  We also had our house blessed in early January.  I'd also like to take some time to reflect on that here too.  And then there's the car issues I've run into and still trying to figure out our new normal as life seems to be pulling me by a thread.

But before I can thoroughly ingest, dissect and divulge about the last few months, I need to really think about where we've been, where we are, and where we are going.  And today is Mardi Gras....so what better time than now to really reflect on the life God has planned for me and my family.

So, I promise to come back soon with the other posts.  But for today, I'm focusing on the BEST LENT EVER!

Six weeks to really turn my life back to Jesus.  Rediscover Jesus.  Strengthen my relationship with him.

I have some ideas in mind of what I'd like the next six weeks to be like.  And those ideas are very, very challenging.

Dear Lord, please guide me.....
