A little late...

I made a New Year's Resolution. In March. Ironically it's to not procrastinate/push things aside. Hah.

The Lord allowed me to get to a point where there was so much "pushed aside for later" that it had to be addressed. And then He showed me why.

Not only was I procrastinating on taking things to the Goodwill, getting my oil changed, breaking down some boxes and putting them in the recycling bin...I was procrastinating on getting my heart right with Him.

Those who know me well, and maybe even not so well, know that I am not a very decisive person. I am so afraid of making the wrong decision or desperate to make the right decision that I remain still. No action. No movement. NOTHING.

The funny thing is that as I don't make a decision, I already have. I have chosen complacency, fear, perfectionism.

But the Lord is working to change that. One. Small. Step. At. A. Time. I praise Him for that.

"He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it." 1 Thessalonians 5:24

"Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh, and having a High Priest over the house of God, let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful." Hebrews 10:19-23

Katie! So happy to see you on my blog! I had to make sure it was Katie K (my old carpool driver) and not some other random Katie K... and I was pleased to find out it was you. :-) Hey, I tried to make those pillows last night..... HA!!! Joke on me. Those things were killer... I'll post a blog on it. I gave up.
