iOverwhelmed

Recently, for my birthday I received an iPhone from my wonderful hub. I am officially the least worthy human being to own a device such as this. (See: Washing my cell phone in with my clothes, then dropping it's replacement from the second story banister. In my defense I was pregnant and therefore incapable of coherent thought...)
To my amazement I am really loving it (typing this post on said device), but I am beyond overwhelmed with all it can do. I don't even own an ipod so to me it feels like I've been transported to another dimension or similarly dropped out of a space ship on Mars. There's an app for anything you can imagine and I have come to simple conclusion regarding my highly sophisticated phone. I'm keeping it real; using it for it's intention, pictures, and my bible app.
And for now calling it a day. Just before I started typing this I read Bek's blog about solitude and silence. It spoke to me and the direction I would love to take for this next season in life; take a gander. I'm thankful for her in many ways, but mostly thankful to God for granting me friendships that are rooted in Him. More on this later, but for now overwhelmed has a new meaning: that of pairing down to what matters and feeling overwhelmed at the genuine change and space for truth that will create.
