Dreams

Just watched the movie Julie and Julia. I really enjoyed watching this movie. It only reinforced to me the wondrous things that God can do in our lives. I think that what plans we have for ourselves are minuscule compared to what God has planned for us. We only need to get out of our own way. Does that make sense? Sometimes what planned or want is not what is best for us but we keep on pounding away at those things when maybe something else is waiting. I love the part of the movie when Julia is packing the book up to send off to the publishers and she says that she loves "those moments". You know the ones where anything can happen! I've had those: being pregnant, applying for a job, starting a new project. Nerve wracking but exhilarating because the world of possibilites is opened up! I think I am at that moment now. Where I have the privilege of going any direction I want in my life. The movie also made me think about how we can be given what seems like a bad situation and it is turned into something spectacular. Amazing.

Oh and I have a new years resolution for you: start your own blog! It's getting lonely out here in blog world.
