"As long as you're going to be thinking anyway, THINK BIG."

~ Donald Trump

This is how I have been thinking lately. It has been really exciting to watch God work as I have taken the limits off of Him in my thinking. I have always known in my head that God is a BIG God, but it has finally really sunk down into my heart.

Since taking the limits off of God, Ed has gotten the job that he desired and loves. They are very family friendly and concerned about their employees work/life balance. For example, this Friday night I am going scrapbooking with some friends. They are letting Ed come home early to finish working from home, so I can get to my scrapbooking event at 5:00 pm. How cool is that???

We have put our house on the market and begun looking online at houses closer to Ed's office. As we have been looking, we have realized that we will be able to purchase a home on a lake which has been our dream for years. We honestly never thought we would see this dream realized. It is AMAZING what happens when you let God be God and take the limits off your thinking!!!

The Bible (New International Version) says in Psalm 37:4 : "Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart." I have really seen this verse come alive in my life as I have focused on "seeking first the kingdom of God." I have really been living out of my heart the last few months, and it is amazing the difference it makes.

I encourage you to take the limits off of God, THINK BIG, DREAM BIG, and live out of your heart!

To the Big Apple

Well, Ed left for New York yesterday afternoon. His flight was delayed due to heavy air traffic in New York, but he arrived safely. He will be spending this entire work week in New York for training. He began his new job with Rust Consulting on Monday, May 7th, and this was the day that he was informed that he would be leaving for New York on Sunday, May 13th.

I am very excited for him to have this opportunity. He hasn't done as much traveling as I have, so this is really neat for him. I am also excited for him about this career opportunity. This is the first time that I have seen him truly loving what he is doing. It really seems like he is in his element. He told me the other day that work just flies by not because he is super, crazy busy (although he is quite busy), but because he really is enjoying what he is doing.

Congratulations again honey on your new job!
