have you ever just had one of those seasons in your life where your spirit has a great expectancy of what god is doing in and around you? last week started that season for me. at least in my own eyes. i’m sure, no, i know god has been starting it for years. the more and more i look back, the more and more i can see how this step lead to this place, and this turned into this, and saying “yes” here meant this, which lead to this…
it creates a stirring energy inside me. an eagerness i haven’t had for a long, long time.
i have no idea what in the world is going on, or what all of my current circumstances, feelings, thoughts, hopes, and dreams will lead to, or when, or even why (except the obvious reason of all glory to thee)…even though i’m not physically going anywhere, i know spiritually and mentally i have jumped on a crazy ride.
and i really covet your prayers. for discernment. creativity. inspiration. pure-heartedness. meekness. compassion. hope. faith. courage.
you, although most of you i have never met – are a giant part of my life, my community, of showing god’s grace, passion, and love.
will you join alongside me by praying for me specifically those things daily over the next month? (and i won’t stop you there, feel free to go longer).

i’ll stand with you…
I understand a little I think. Don’t know all your circumstances, but I feel like I am in the midst of one of those seasons myself, but a bit further along…just a bit.
Will definitely try to remember you in my prayers this coming month. Keep us updated!
“Be still and know…”. Listen and get ready. You’ll know exactly what you are being prepared for when it’s standing in front of you. Prayers and Blessings to you and your husband
I can relate. My issue is the patience. I’m not good at it.
Prayers are a-comin’!!
yep ….
Thats so good, Im really happy for you, I’m in a similar position but I am actually physically going somewhere… off to Hillsong College. Very pumped!
I don’t see why we should feel like this all the time, well it’s nice to expect anyway, right?
You certainly have the correct perspective! The ‘crazy ride’ has been custom designed! Pray? Yes! Keep posting on it!
ok :-)
Awesome. I’ve had those seasons. And every time the eventual destination of the crazy ride was (1) completely unexpected and un-dreamed-of, and (2) in the end, not a destination, but a sort of ‘work stop’ (as opposed to rest stop) where the ride ceased, and there was a chance to do something new. Before jumping back on the ride.
Your list of what to pray for is perfect. Rock that crazy ride.
I’m with ya…and feel like I’m in a really similar place.
YES!! I can so relate–I am also there and am beginning to see a path to get started on. It is incredible and exciting but I am impatient–I know something is coming…crazy ride here we come!
Yes Anne, I would like to pray for you. I thought I was in one of those seasons a few weeks ago, then all my plans seemed to change, but regardless of the practicalities I still have that heightened expectation of what God is doing.
Look forward to keep hearing about your journey
