Never done learning

I know, I know...it's been like 6 months since I've written. And believe me, nothing shy of God not moving or working in my life. I have no excuses...

I really thought about it the other day and really am upset with myself that I have documented all that God has been doing and things I've been learning. So that brings me back to this! :)

On the 6 months note...we've now been in the Northwoods for over 6 months, actually it will be 7 on Oct. 31st that we drove away from all my husband and I knew together. That is where we met, where we grew together, were we started our life together, where we went to school, where I had my dream job (yes, i still believe that is what it is/was), had amazing friends, a wonderful church family...and the list could go on and on.

It's hard to believe that it's been that long since we drove away from that place. I honestly feel like it was just last week that we pulled into our driveway at our new place with the Uhaul and I walked into the doors of our new "home" and I saw an empty, SMALL house ready to be filled (to the brim).
And here we are, almost 7 months later, and I see how much God has changed me. I feel so blessed to be where I am at. Not just physically in the Northwoods, as that is also true, but so blessed for how God has worked in my life for the past 7 months.

Needless to say, I have countless ways that God has showed me things and blessed me. He has changed my heart to really appreciate where I am at and what He is doing in our lives. I have grown to love the Northwoods, the weather (well, I haven't gone through a winter here yet, so we'll see), the people, the lifestyle, and our relationship with each other (my hubby and I AND how God and I are as well). I feel like my relationship with God took a different, new level. I can't even explain how it happened or how it has felt or what it feels like now. My relationship with my husband has grown and that is completely from God as well. All we have had was each other, and God used that to really lean on each other and on God. I had nothing when we first move here, no friends, no family, no job...all I had was time with God, time in general, and time with my hubby. It was hard for me to RELAX in that, but I did. And I am thankful I had that time. I wasn't at first, but I am thankful I had that. There are times when I actually wish I had that back! And I knew I'd feel that way and that is why 6 months ago, in my last post, God kept tell me "enjoy this time"...I was, but now i wish I could again. I know He was telling me and I knew that sometime down the road I'd be wishing for that time back...and here I am, wishing for that time back!
But you know...I know where God has me know and I am thankful for what I am doing. I am thankful for what He is showing me and teaching me through where I am at now in life. And I know that will always be the case! I just need to learn that God is always in control, we aren't!

I'm still learning...and God is sure showing me more...
