Busy and Blessed

                                               
It's been a while since I've taken the time to write on here. Summer began and ended with busy schedules and tons of ministry opportunities. It really felt like we were on a never ending roller coaster. Don't get me wrong though, our summer was amazing!

Here's a quick recap in order for you to fully grasp what our kind of busy looks like...LIFE trip to San Antonio, Mission Trip to Oklahoma, Grandson Henry Houston Fulks was born (more on that later), Mission trip to Kosovo, Youth camp with the whole family, Mission trip to Canada, Destiny to GA camp, Loressa to collegiate week at Glorietta,  rehearsals and the performance of the musical that I wrote over the whole last year called "The Church Around The Corner", family vacation to see both sides of our families and then taking Loressa back to Lubbock for college...and, knowing me, I probably forgot a few things.

Like I said...we were super busy, but in the midst of such a busy summer, we were all given the privilege to be God's servants and feel His blessings on our lives.

Busy and Blessed...that was the story of our summer.

I know many of you would not have had a list as long as mine of your summer events. Most likely, just like my summer mirrored my lifestyle, your summer would have mirrored yours. We have a large family and lead busy lives...It's okay, though, because we accept and love that as part of the package of who we are. The best part of it all is the fact that we get to serve the Lord together...AND...It already makes me really sad that my kids won't always be around to keep me this busy.

Whatever your agenda was for the this past summer, I hope you ended it with knowing you were right where you should have been and that you faithfully did all the things you were supposed to be doing.

I know that if you are reading this, since it is the middle of September, you have already organized your school year with all of the different things that you hope to accomplish. I hope your list of events includes time for you to serve the Lord by serving your church, your community and your family. Remember...there are lots of things that can keep you busy, but try to do the things that really matter because when this school year is over and you are looking back over it all, you are going to want to be able to say, "I wasn't just busy, I was blessed."
