Sitting here choosing songs for church next week and warming up lunch for the kids (by kids I mean students who are my age) and debating or "discussing" about marriage (hot Bible School topic) - I'm realizing that I'm super content with where my life is right now. In a relational sense, that is. Listening to the Europeans tell me their plans and to the adventure-hearted girls tell me what they hope to have one day if it's in the cards for them, I came to the conclusion I'm just content to be where I am right now. I don't want to decide wedding colors or try to figure out what to make a hungry husband for supper nor do I want to be at the place where I'm counting down until that glorious bed time hour when there will finally be some sense of sanity in the house. *deep breath* I'm pretty comfortable to say right now, I'm not ready for that. And it's so exciting!
I can work, travel, go to school, move to a different country, sleep in until 10 and go to bed at 3 am. I can turn music up reeeeally loud and possibly dance around. I can choose what I want to watch on tv and I can eat frozen yogurt out of the container without anyone giving me "you're not really going to do that" looks! I can decide to be a hermit for a day and wear pyjamas just because I feel like it! Basically, I can do whatever I want and I love it.
I think Michael Bublé said it best in his song "I just haven't met you yet"...
Wherever You Are
Whenever It's Right
You Come Out Of Nowhere And Into My Life
Obviously it's not right yet and I love it because there's so much in waiting for that moment!

I'm happy that your happy to be where you are today, because that's the best way to be. God will give you what you need in His time. And odvious you are exactly where He wants you to be. Because you are so contented. Bless you Stephanie.
Preach it sister! ;) I'm full on board with you on that-there's so much freedom and it's exciting to celebrate it rather than just long for something else. The other end is great too, but its refreshing to hear contentment of where you're at today. :)
