sleepy thoughts

So, it's 12:00 am, the girl is in bed, the hubby is at work, and I am watching Gilmore Girls. Suddenly, I thought, "I should blog". I have so much to blog. I feel like I have been MIA for a loooooong time. My goal is to blog at least the nights that Scotty is working. That would be every 3rd night....we'll see how it goes.

So, recently God has really been teaching me a lot about relationships. Let's just say I forgot how serious it is that we love each other. I mean really love each other. I think I have been stuck in the self-centered world for a while now and since I have started to come out of it, God has transformed a few of my relationships.

I've learned a lot about myself and areas I need to grow in. First, I need to be more aware of how my mood affects the way I treat others. Part of my selfishness was causing people to think that I didn't like them, when in fact I LOVED them, and considered them some of my closest peeps :-)

Second, I was thinking negative thoughts about a certain individual and it was causing tension between myself and that person. Who am I to think negatively of someone that God loves so dearly. I have since apologized to this person and hope that my thoughts will slowly transform so that I can walk in relationship with this person for MANY years to come!!!

I'm so glad I serve a God who expects the best from me and guides me to be just that!
