The Day After

It’s the day after Christmas, and my house is still. Everyone’s sleeping but me and my dog. And I’m sitting here by the twinkle lights of my tree just thinking about the past couple of months and how it’s all over. After months of planning. After weeks of shopping and searching for just the right gifts. After hours and hours and hours of baking and wrapping and plotting and planning….we’ve opened the gifts and eaten the food and goodies. We laughed and joked and cried and laughed again. And now….it’s the day after. It’s over. But is it?

Am I invisible?

My kids have the movie The Incredibles, and I can’t even begin to count how many times we’ve watched it. If you haven’t seen it, it’s a Disney/Pixar movie about a family of super heroes with super powers who’ve gone into hiding and are trying to be normal. The daughter, Violet, has the invisibility super power. She can disappear. She just blends into the background and no one can see her. I have felt like Violet quite a few times in my life, especially when it comes to my dreams and walking out the plan of God in my life. I kind of just blend into the background. Like no one can see me. “Can God even see me? Did He forget about me? Did he forget about my dreams? Hellooooo!?! Anybody up there??? Am I invisible?”

Things I learned on my walk today…

It’s been a while since I’ve posted, but it’s been a crazy few weeks. We had a death in the family, and add to that back-to-school, band, football, and soccer…well…let’s just say my brain was dizzy from spinning. But I’m so glad to be back to writing again. These are just a few thoughts I had on my walk today that will hopefully help us keep running this race we’re in with Him. Blessings…Toni
