a shift


I almost didn't write this post because, quite honestly, I wasn't quite sure what I was going to write about.  You see for the past couple weeks I've been feeling something shifting within me.  I will come to write a post and I'll be stuck.  I'll begin to type and then I'll erase the letters on the screen and start again.  It's genuinely hard to put into words what I'm feeling, it's not even an actual feeling that I can identify.  The only way to actually put it'into any kind of terms is I feel God shifting my life: shifting my priorities, shifting my thoughts, shifting my reactions, shifting my view of the world as I've known it.  And the reason this seems so hard to articulate is because it's subtle this work that God is doing.  It's not an earthquake-sized event that shakes who I am and what I know.  It's a feeling of anticipation of the path that our family is walking and the different opportunities that are presenting themselves.  It's a true celebration of the fact that as I am slowly learning to release this life as mine and so much more peace and clarity and opportunities are presenting themselves.  It's a shift in my perception of the world and my place in it.  It's a shift of my priorities and where I let my mind wander throughout the day.  It's a shift of that is so small it's monumental at the same time.  It is truly the mustard seed that can move mountains, as one incredibly wise man said.  And I look forward to sharing this path with you as it presents itself.
