One thing about living life as Positively Alene is the fact that I wake up each morning knowing it is going to be crazy! And then somewhere amid my seeking, searching, and serving to be positively myself in the moment, I see little snippets of love from God.
God knows I doubt, question, fret, and even feel clueless about this life He has given me. Yes, I’ve been known to argue too. You see, I want it all to make sense and for every piece to fit together nice and neatly. I long to be a perfectly completed 1000 piece puzzle, but I’m more of a mosaic — jagged chipped edges and all.
So, here I am. . .
one month into a new year
still . . .
seeking
searching
serving . . .
begging for clarity
Forgive me, but today I just need to take time to reflect on who God is and smile.
He is the God who called me to an inner city church where I question what I have to offer.
He is the God who sent me to the substance abuse treatment facility with a word to share.
He is the God who made me with crazy curly hair.
He is the God who gave me this mind that does silly and humorous things without thinking.
He is the God who says it’s OK to lighten up and have fun.
He is the God who let me share with Leigh at Speaking Thru Me yesterday.
He is the God who took an old post and put it in the top five to be re-featured HERE.
He is the God who made me with personal space issues! Yep, read it here.
He is the God who will continue to guide me this year as I step out and make changes.
Changes are coming. I’ll be sharing some of those soon. (need all those pieces in place)
But first, maybe today is a day we just need to sit back and reflect on God’s love and smile!
Reflecting, I’d love to know what you see?

Oh my goodness Alene, I'm home today to not feeling well and yes I am in the reflecting mode too. I will hopefully get to write it soon. Take care and can't wait to hear about the changes!
