Take Delight in the Lord

Lately, my posts have been about my dreams and the country. They went from being all about Guatemala and missions to the good, ole country. Why? I don't know. I have been thinking a lot lately about the country and about my heart's desires and I'm realizing really strange things. I've always been the small town type of girl, I will admit. I grew up in a small town and graduated from a small high school and always dreamed of living out in the country. Every summer my family would take vactions to Montana when I was younger. I thought it was just a phase I was going through. That I would grow out of it once I knew what more was out in the world but I don't think I'm going to and that is fine by me. I grew up on the farm my 1st 4 years of life and loved it. I love going back to this day and just feeling the peace and quite there. Dinfantly the memories of me as a little girl too playing with the chicks, walking in the woods, playing in the pond. Ok, I better stop before I embrass myself on here.  I got to thinking too who means the most to me in my life and really it is my grandpa, grandad, dad, a grown friend, and my FFA teacher. All of them have passed away expect my grown friend and dad. It was and is those I look to, those who made me the strong girl I am today. Those that believe in me. Those that showed me what working hard really meant but yet at the same time you can live the simple life and have fun too. Fun in the outdoors like fishing, walking, camping, hunting, and many other things. It's funny because I have a friend from the country right now that I look up to in so many ways and they don't know that. They have been working hard for what they have from nothing and you can see it in so many ways. I always use to kid that I wanted a log cabin in the mountains in Montana but right now that sounds so good. I try to run away from all of this but it always comes back to my heart. When it comes back, that is where I find peace. It is so funny because I grew up on country music, aka Johnny Cash, Randy Travis, Geogre Strait, and some others.
I looked at the verse in the Bible that says, "Take delight in the Lord and He will give you your heart's desires." (Psalm 37:4) and I wonder are these really my heart's desires?
 Is this my "big" dream? I'm thinking that is my life verse right now. You can't take the country out of the girl. No matter how hard you try. There will still be some stubbornness and tough love in her. Is my "big" dream the simple, country dream?
One of my friends said recently, "I hope all of you dream, and dream big!"
I don't feel like I'm dreaming that big but it is what I want in life. I also what to be a stay at home mom and always wanted to be that and that is a big part of the country dream too. Every women I know was one or had a little job like a bank or church job so she could spend more time at home. Is that why I'm also in the daycare/preschool/non-profit job area? This is probably the longest entery I have wrote in awhile but I had to get it all out there.
