The last 2 days have been an amazing opening door, I just gotta share it with y'all!
My local Freecycle group had a 1991 GMC Safari van posted on Friday...I didn't see it until it had been there at least an hour...it said "1st one who wants it gets it"...
...when I wrote inquiring about it, a hope began to well up in me that it was meant for me, but I didn't hear back anything, though I'd asked him to let me know, one way or another~
I spent a long night in prayer, & asked that if it would be a money pit, & not his will, that they wouldn't choose me, but if it really is time for me to get driving again, (it's been years, I've missed it LOTS!) that He would give me favor with them, though I knew many would be asking for it. It does need a transmission, but other than that, he said he was driving it to work daily, & it had no other problems.
So yesterday, he called...& it's mine!!! He even offered to have it towed here for free!
Somehow this has lit a fire under me, has motivated me to get going again on reaching HARD for my goals again, not just physical, but financial...Shannon & I have re-committed to returning to as close to 100% raw DAILY as possible...(I've been going back & forth lately, & only about 60-75% raw...)
So today is my returning day, I'm back, & eager to push through everything that's been slowing me down...I've been more discouraged than I realized, & have needed something like this to remind me that things CAN change in an instant, & can also change slowly for the better!
I've been slowly getting worse, physically, & see now how a part of me was feeling overwhelmed with getting things really moving in the right direction again, especially living on little sleep the last few months, sinse school started.
To think that I'll be driving again soon (hopefully by the summer!) & able to homeschool her properly (without always having to line up rides, or not getting out enough) as well as use the vehicle to minister to & bless others, {as I once did with my bronco, 5 years ago} has flooded my heart with hope, enthusiasm, & motivation for the hard work ahead!
So here I go...pressing on into this new beginning...something has shifted in my focus, & changed my direction...I'm heading up the mountain again, instead of lingering in the valley I've been stuck in.
Hope your life's unfolding fulla blessings, too!
