I often wonder about the span of my day, and I hope I’m becoming the person I should be, a person who lets her light shine for Jesus. I know me, and I know how much I get wrong. Years ago, I used to say that love and fear were the two driving pieces in my life. Now that I’ve lived long enough, the pain is there too. And pain can drive your life. Disappointment will sneak in too.
I’m a planner … a project manager … I set goals and work toward achieving those goals. I had the subject of this week’s blog post all planned out, then … Something happened. Maybe it was the continued stories of revival in our land. Maybe it was the testimony I heard. Whatever it was, I dropped all my planning and am focused on the power of one.
It is really hard not to be overly optimistic these days here in Bowie County if you take a few minutes to really look around at the state of things in our communities. There are stories in this issue of all of the positive things going on, with grand opening celebrations for State Bank and Love’s, millions of dollars in infrastructure improvements happening in DeKalb, and a robust and thriving economy in New Boston and other cities around the county.
