On Fridays over here a group of people who love to throw caution to the wind and just write gather to share what five minutes buys them. Just five minutes. Unscripted. Unedited. Real.
1. Write for 5 minutes flat – no editing, no over thinking, no backtracking
2. Link back here and invite others to join in.
3. Please visit the person who linked up before you & encourage them in their comments.
Here are my best five minutes on:
Identity
Who we think we are? What would be like if I truly dwelt on the truth of my Identity in Christ? I think that would radically change who I am and what I do on a daily basis. Today, I feel like a mediocre teacher, a 32 year old single women who longs to be married and become a mother. Yet God has His ultimate good for me which doesn't currently include those things. It pains me at times to trust in His Sovereignty and yet I know that this is the place where I am the safest and most secure. I am grateful for many things I am in this current moment.
I am a friend, a daughter, a teacher, a lover of Christ, a sister, an aunt, a sojourner on the way to health, a crafter, a seamstress, a homeowner, giver of hospitality. How I long to be content in this season on a daily basis? But I suppose that's part of this journey moment by moment trust.STOP.

Ah, gratitude...it's the key isn't it? And journeying through moment by moment, trusting Him in ALL things...I'm joining you in that!
~Blessings to you,

Girl, God's got big stuff in store. He's teaching you all kinds of things in your current season. Things most of wish we would have been able to before the next season. Being Christ in your time and place is something only YOU can do. You got this girl. Keep persevering!
"What would be like if I truly dwelt on the truth of my Identity in Christ?" This is a truth we can all use no matter what place in life we are. Glad you joined in the FMF. :)
