Plans for My Sabbatical

Yesterday, I had the opportunity to share on our local Christian radio station that I am taking a sabbatical. They were asking the question, "What are your plans for the summer?" I was excited to call in and share, except the fact that I kind of blanked on what all my plans are, except the sabbatical part!

So for everyone interested, here are some of my plans/goals:

• Blog! So far, so good!
• Continue to be politically active (lit drop, phone call, walk in parades, etc...)
• Go to the Republican National Convention
• Start an Etsy store
• Travel (TX, NY, KY, OH, maybe more...)
• Visit the Ark Encounter (So excited for this!!!)
• Help plan our homeschool group's 25th year reunion
• Volunteer with a student leadership camp
• Write a magazine article
• Attend Decision America in my state 
• Volunteer at church 
• Be there for friends/family who are going through tough situations
• Find other ways to volunteer and look for ways that God can use me in people's lives 

This is not a complete list... It is not all set in stone; some are plans, some are things I hope will happen and are more goals that I have. Mostly I want to be open to God's leading. I want to live in the moment and experience a lot. It is my time to go outside my comfort zone and see where God guides me.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. 

Proverbs 3:5-6

  What are your plans for the summer? Are you ready to go where God leads?
