Just a Thought...

Name:
Location: Atlanta, Georgia

A graduate of Dallas Theological Seminary, who can't seem to stay in one place for more than a hot second. A lover of God and of people, laughter, good conversations with good friends, writing, music, student ministry, hope, and learning new things. This blog is about my life, and a place for my ramblings, as I seek God's will for my life, and strive to love others more than myself.

Home

I'm in Virginia now.  I was having a rough time in Chattanooga, and the whole insomnia thing was making everything exponentially more difficult for me to deal with stuff, so I ran away. My first night home, I slept amazingly.  I've stayed pretty busy subbing for my home church's preschool. I knew I wanted something to keep me busy and whoa 4 and 5 year olds definitely do the trick!  I got to sub the two days in Noah's class which was so much fun.  He didn't like having his Aunt Molly there the whole time because he says I always get him in trouble. haha.  I loved it though.  5 year olds are hilarious!  I'm also getting to see my friends, and am loving the time I've spent with so many people.


Sometimes you just need to go home.
I'm grateful that my parents are always here when I need to come home, and that only ask a few questions of "Why?" when I show up on their doorstep.
I'm grateful that I have an amazing group of friends and church family that fill my love tank whenever I'm in town. 
I'm grateful for my Chattanooga friends who text me everyday to tell me they miss me and that they're praying my trip home is refreshing... unfortunately some of them witnessed my almost-nervous breakdown.  


Coming home was a good idea.


I'm staying here for another week or so.  Probably 2 Sundays.  I'll head back to Chattanooga next Sunday after church.  This weekend I get to go wedding dress shopping with my older sister.  We're celebrating my mom's birthday and I'm excited to see my sisters and my brother in laws.. And I might get to lead worship with Becca on Sunday night, which is always fun.  There are really only 2 worship leaders I feel super comfortable singing with... Becca has taught me a lot over the years, and so I always love singing with her. We have fun.


We're on baby watch for my sweet friend Melissa... I'm so hoping her little guy is born while I'm home!
I'm helping Kristi write stuff for her upcoming D-Now... I discipled her when I was in college... and I'm just so proud of what she's doing in student ministry.
Spending lots of time with great friends.


It's going to be a great rest of my trip, and I'll head back to Chattanooga ready to deal with whatever is next.


I'm already feeling better about things.
Sleep can do wonders for your perspective.

One of my Favorites

Hear my prayer, give your ear
In your faithfulness answer me
In your righteousness do not judge
For no one is righteous

I remember days of old
On your works I meditate O Lord
I consider all the works of your hands
I lift up my hands to you
My soul longs
Like a parched land I'm thirsty

Teach me to do your will Lord
For you are my God
Your spirit is good, good, good
Lead me on level ground Lord
For you are my God
Your spirit is good
It is good

Revive me
Revive me, not for me
But for your name
In your mercy
Deliver me from my enemies
Revive me

For your name
In your mercy
Deliver me from my enemies
Revive me

Psalm 143 (Revive Me)
