Tension

I'm told that tension is a good thing ... that where there is tension, there's growth. How true.

There's been a lot of tension in my life lately. Between wondering why on earth I'm doing what I'm doing, to sticking it out solely because I said I wouldn't leave until the end of 2009, yet feeling like my time here isn't up yet, and adding to that the fact that there's something that's not quite right ... I can feel the pull.

On top of this I've had some hard conversations with key people in my life here lately where I'm not sure that I was even heard, been given words of knowledge from people that don't know what I'm walking through that have been spot on, and I've come to the point of saying "never again" to some things (when I'm pretty staunch about NEVER saying never!) ... yeah, there's been some tension.

So, I'm expecting all kinds of growth in this season! Praying that I learn what I'm supposed to learn and that I walk through this season with grace, honoring my Lord and God in all that I do.
