Full Heart

My heart is full as I write this post. We had a beautiful shower this weekend. It was my favorite thing ever...having so much family in town and also great friends that are like my family! Matt, Molly Caroline, Blakely, and I are so blessed!

Now that all the fun is over, it is back to reality. It has been a whirlwind of a week...conferences every night, pre-k screenings, meetings, appointmnets, etc. I felt bad too and ended up finding out that I have bronchitis again. I'm thankful to be feeling a lot better right now though. And this week will be packed full too. I started to feel overwhelmed! So much goes on at the end of our school year!

I realized that I was singing this song in my head. The desire of my soul is for these words to be true about my life and my faithfulness to the Lord.


"My delight is in you Lord. On your word I set my heart. You are peace, you are calm, for my restless soul. You light my way through the dark. I want to know you even more. Holiness is my desire. Purify. Burn in me. Come and make me clean. Refine me in Your fire. You're my LIFE. You're my REFUGE. My delight is in YOU."

Then I came across Psalm 1. You thrill to God’s Word, you chew on Scripture day and night.
You’re a tree replanted in Eden, bearing fresh fruit every month,
Never dropping a leaf, always in blossom.

And one of my friends posted this about it. I think they go perfectly together.

"Delight in God's Word leads to meditation on it. Meditation on God's Word leads to delight in it."


I am going to be doing this all week long. Along with another shower, graduation prep, and relay for life!!! Have a great week y'all! I'll be posting pictures very soon!
