"What in the World?"

"What in the world!" Thats the look above! That's what my sweet little Cade man says when he is surprised, over-joyed, or looking at something for the first time. It' so funny to hear coming out of a 3 year olds mouth. "What in the world" is what's going through my mind as I ponder the last couple of months....

 I am a full fledged, paid teacher!! 

 I am learning to play piano!! I am learning Latin! 

 I am teaching ART! 

 My kids are in a musical drama!

 I am a helper in said drama!! 

 We are going to adopt a child! 

 All of these things are way outside of my comfort zone. God is stretching me, working on me and moving me. I find myself pondering this often and wondering, who am I? Then I hear my sweet savior whisper to my heart...

 you are MINE! 

you are made for MY glory! 

 you can do ALL things through ME! 

 And then peace washes over my soul as I realize that all of these things (that are outside of my comfort zone) are ...

 BUILDING my confidence! 

 My FAITH is growing.

FEAR is FADING.

 My kids are witnessing that you really CAN do ALL things through HIM! I am realizing that my God is huge. He's teaching this old gal some new tricks :)
