Life is good. Really good. For the first time in a very long time we are not sick or injured, moving, pregnant, or grieving. It seems as though we have been at least one of those things, and sometimes more than one, almost constantly for the past 3 1/2 years. To be sure we have normal, everyday sorts of struggles. I do have to tackle potty training in the near future, after all! But overall life is easy right now.
I'm in a season now of reaping the sweet fruit of hard lessons. The "break" I begged for so often God has finally seen fit to give. I'll take it thankfully, but I don't want to forget the lessons. I have no doubt the hard times will return in God's perfect time.
But though my circumstances have changed God's purposes haven't. He is still in the business of conforming me to his image. God did not cease to be good when my circumstances were bad, and I have not stopped being dependent on him because my circumstances are good.
Not that much has changed.
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. Hebrews 13:8 ESV

Blogging can sometimes be an exercise in vanity. I know it often is when I post. =( But it can also be an occasion for encouragement. I'm thankful that you have started posting again, and I especially appreciate posts like this; whether things are going 'well' or not, it is wonderful to see people depending on Christ for their daily bread.
Keep us 'posted'. =P
