Just when I think I've gotten things down, God opens up the floodgates even more.

I like it.

There are better ways of doing things, which I'm coming to find out, and it's incredible how much of a difference it can make. God is showing me self-controled passion, in various forms, as well as remaining level headed and becoming a critical thinker.

Many hard things to stay faithful to. Many easy things as well, which is sometimes harder to stay faithful to than the hard things for reasons of neglect. The bottom line is that God has provided steadier footing on rougher terrain, an open door and three green lights.

I'm reading a book on Biblical Eldership right now, and it's putting so many things in perspective. God is good, and though I'm tired from being insanely busy lately, I'm very encouraged, satisfied and grateful for His lovingkindness in my life.
