We are on week two living in the hotel, as they work on our house. We are thankful, but are ready to be back in our home soon. This past weekend, Henry had a bad asthma attack and we had to take him to the ER. He ended up staying the night in the hospital. So we have been stretched pretty thin.
I have often joked about how when things hit in the Creath household, they hit all at once. In December of 2020 we had a round of it with Covid, my parents getting sick, etc. Seems like we are in another round of it. I've learned that I like routine. When I get out of routine, my head spins. This happens to me even on vacation. I have joked that I have to actually leave the country to have a true vacation, and even then it takes me a few days to unwind. However, there are great benefits to us being pushed out of our routine. Most of us are prone to getting into ruts, believing they are the best place to be. We find comfort in things not changing, because we someone think change is bad. Change can sometimes though bring perspective that we did not see before. Change allows us to examine ourselves, our hearts, and where our comfort truly lies. I won't lie-I'm ready to get back to my house. However, during this short season where my head is spinning, I'm trying to see what and how God is trying to grow me closer to Him. If we can train ourselves to understand that God is actually in control during seasons like this, great worship will be squeezed out of us. The Lord is in control, and we have more than we deserve. We are thankful. Comments are closed.
