When I originally called my blog, "A Work in Progress", I was talking about the actual blog itself, but the more I thought about it, the more appropriate the title actually became.
You see, I can't even begin to tell you how many times I have referred to myself as "a work in progress"...(usually in a negative way after I have failed miserably at some everyday task). I keep thinking that one of these days the "work" will be done & I will be "complete"...that I will be a perfect wife, housekeeper, mommy, teacher, friend, etc..the list could go on forever!
The funny thing is that I find out more each day that the "work" is never done.. and that it is actually a good thing! God is working in and through us every moment of every day & HIS work is never done. I have really felt God working through me this year & I can say that it hasn't been easy or even painless, but I am overjoyed & can't wait to see how God will work through me (&my precious family & friends) in the future!
I have been blessed in countless ways this year & I am absolutely humbled by the grace that God gives.
So even though I will never be the mommy with the perfect hair, perfectly clean house & most organized life on the block- I am thankful that I am loved just the way I am...and when you look at it this way, I guess we are all just "a work in progress"! :)
