Not as easy as I thought...

For some reason, I thought this would be easy.
Pick a word, change your life, all for one easy payment of one year of your time.

It has not been easy.

When you invite God in to clean and rearrange, be prepared to see your house (heart) turned completely upside-down in a good and necessary way!



Oh boy, is He doing a good work and how I want to complain during some of it.
You see, His interior design isn't aligning with my color scheme. Or my furniture.
In fact, I'm starting to think that the only thing that He's going to leave alone is the foundation of the house (because it's His...built on His Word).

If you don't want me to re-type everything I'm thinking, follow my regular posts at tammysincerity.blogspot.com and there may be more frequent updates than on here.

Still, He is constantly doing something new. He is working on me regarding Expectations.

He is also working on my attitude and waking up depending on Him.
Psalm 90:14 (NIV) states: Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.

If I am truly satisfied internally, I won't be using food, beverages, friends, family, or anything else to meet my emptiness. His love can satisfy me EVERY morning, and I will sing for joy and be glad ALL of my days!

Doesn't that sound wonderful?

As the year progresses, I hope to live out that promise. For now, I have days where I remember to ask, and days where I finish exhausted, and then I remember.





For those of you curious about the photos, the first is the original design of our 1959 house. Second is an "in progress" photo of our bathroom remodel in our house several years ago, and the above photo is the finished project.
