what a long week!

this week has been quite a challenge for me. work was slow and everyday felt SOOO long. my manger was gone thursday and friday, so i was kind of nice to have the pressure off and relax a bit though. but let's be honest...i would so much rather be busy!

john and i also stayed up later than usual every night this week, so i'm sure that added to the feeling of 'longness'. it's been good though - i get a lot more done if i don't sleep as many hours - and really, do i need more than eight hours?! the whole late night habit may become routine.

we also have been waiting to hear about the townhouse we applied to rent last week. it's been quite a trial of my patience as i posted before, but the guy hasn't even called us yet! let's just say it has been FRUSTRATING and i've pretty much given up on being able to live there. (which is way sad because it seemed so perfect.) at this point, we really don't know where we are going to be living after august 31st. for some reason, the Lord is waiting to reveal this to us, but in His time, I KNOW He will provide us with a new home. 'patience, keri, patience'

john is also questioning grad school - mainly due to the length of time and cost - he applied for a GIS paid internship in SLC this week. i think he is going to wait and see how that pans out because it would be a really good opportunity to get into his field. he has until october to apply for school, so there is some decision making time still left. (another area in our lives where we aren't sure what's going on.) 'patience'

i was talking to a friend on thursday night and once again realized that i'm just not where i want to be, or should be, spiritually. all things hard seem to culminate at the same time, but all my worries just points to my lack of trust in the ALL POWERFUL God. i need more prayer, more study, more quiet...to be able to listen. He is The Provider and i need to remember that HE is in control and not me.

i'm looking forward to worship tomorrow, praying it will be a time of refreshment...give all these things to God and focus on His glory, His grace and His plan for my life!!
