Happy Labor Day Weekend!

I have to say this summer has zoomed by! I'm not ready for fall or winter. I love summer time it's my favorite time of the year. I'm glad I live in a place where we experience all 4 seasons but I have always enjoyed summer the very best. I seem to have been in a fog the last few weeks. For some reason I have been feeling out of sorts. No reason why just that feeling like your not connecting well with people or situations. Then last weekend, as I'm busy in my own little world of moving bedrooms so that our 2 youngest children will no longer be sharing their bedrooms but will have the pleasure of having their very own spaces, I begin to have revealed to me that my disconnect stems from my lack of time in prayer and and in God's word the last few weeks. The longer this week went the more God has laid on my heart that my disconnection has been the people around me it has been my disconnect in my relationship with my Heavenly Father God. By Wed I was asking God to please make arrangements for our entire family to be at church that night. Sure enough being the merciful loving God He is it rained Wed and there fore Alex (our oldest son) was not able to work after school so for the first time in a LONG time all 5 of us were at church. We have missed the last couple of Sundays so it was wonderful to be there Wed night together. We were kicking off TeamKid for the children so it was great to have the boys in on the kick off of that program.
As summer draws to an end and the beauty of fall begins I pray that God will instill in me the urgency and desire to committ every thing to Him and to truly surrender all of my heart, mind & soul for His glory and purpose over my life. May I step back and allow Jesus to lead me.
Happy Labor Day & may fall bring us fallen deeper into God's Holy Word.
All 4 Him,
Angela
