Sleepless nights



Well, I may be putting myself out there by sharing so much personal detail with web viewers worldwide but I figure that if my blogging is going to continue to be a form of self processing, then these are the times I want to be able to look back on in years to come.
Getting married only hit me two days ago! When the wedding was 4 weeks away that was still a month, even three weeks and I wasn't flinching. Since Monday however....

I aint sleeping right, this is one of my busiest weeks in work ever and yet the past few days have felt like a dream. I think I'm already running on adrenaline.
Ive experienced many peaks and lows of emotion / challenges / changes in life over the past few years but this one is entirely new. I think the best descriptive word I have is 'Overwhelmed'.
Iv'e decided the best advice given to me so far has been to allow it to overtake me and not fight it.
So what am i saying, I'm getting cold feet? regretting? NO, not at all. I just know it's one of those choices that is going to re-shape the whole world as I know it.
I guess there's some similarities to when I decided on Bible College over another career, or when I chose to work at the Edge rather than elsewhere. You put yourself on the line, knowing your offering yourself up for the hard road, the long one, rather than settle for a comfortable second best.
So What makes the challenging road more appealing?
Well, that's where Leanne is...

mate, I can't talk about it but I've been presented with a life changing opportunity and have a decision to make over the next few weeks. I know how you feel as I'm filled with dread and excitment at the same time. The bottom line is but that moments like these pass through your life only a handful of times and the important thing is to savour them. Keep handing them over in prayer and enjoy!!
