Year two lessons show their faces

Maybe it's just my current perspective but it seems to me year one of marriage/returning to school highlighted, in my life, a lack of efficiency in time, which is a really important part of life when you realize what your time is made up of - can be made up of: building relationships; alleviating and preventing stress; actually learning; etc.

It feels like year two is already defining itself in turning my attention to the broader issue of a lack of wisdom and and a lack of vigilance in this house. I know these will be life-long struggles but I am happy to be growing in my awareness now, at the beginning of my life with Tom. I want to be a helper I was called to be. I want to be joyful, not careless. I want to choose action over ignorance.

I am glad to be convicted in this. I am so happy to be celebrating this year of marriage. Thank God for both.
