an update on the good life

Some new and exciting things have come my way since I last posted, and I am feeling especially fortunate today.

I'll catch you up to speed quickly:
  • I got a new job as a staff reporter with a community newspaper
  • I have decided to relocate temporarily for the job, and I got an exceptional deal on a brand new townhouse (rental)
  • I joined NewSpring Church as an "official member" (more on that later)
  • I am excited about two upcoming opportunities with my new "home church": I have signed up to serve as a volunteer with the church (more on that later) and I have also signed up to join a home group (more on that later as well)
  • I recently had the pleasure of leading someone very close to me to Christ, something I've never done before (more on that another time)
  • I have pen-pointed some areas of my life that I've been reluctant to give to God, and I made a promise last week to be in full submission. It has made a world of difference (as if I even have to say it..."more on that later")
So that's the long and short of what's new with me. I want to elaborate on all...or most...of the things I've mentioned, but now isn't really a good time. I'll blog more about it from home.

I will say this much right now--God has been showering me with blessings lately. I now truly understand what it's like to feel unworthy. The best part is that there's more to come. I feel like I'm only at the beginning of a long walk with God.

That's it for now. Check back tonight or tomorrow. I hope to share some insight soon based on what's been going on in my life for the last few weeks.

Happy Tuesday!
