@deeanndmathews Ms. Dee, thank you so much for such a thoughtful, thorough, and insightful response. I love hearing your perspective and welcome it always.
I know that God is trying to teach me lessons about letting go, and that’s really difficult for me. I heard a bit of a sermon by DawnChere Wilkerson today talking about how God is using this time to increase our flexibility and that structure and flexibility are not mutually exclusive. This is a hard concept for me to internalize, as I am someone who loves to make plans and who lives by those plans. This season is obviously taking those plans and throwing them out the window, and it leaves me feeling so crazy...fumbling, indeed. I wish it didn’t bother me as much as it does. I wish I could just move along and roll with the punches. But that’s so hard for me. I’m praying about it, but I’m definitely not there yet.
Thank you again for your words here. I definitely needed to read them, and I definitely feel God’s comfort through them. Sincerely, thank you. Take care, my friend. We will talk soon, I’m sure. :)
