been doing alot of thinking lately - been challenged to do things differently.
i want to remember more than the every day events around here. when they read this years from now i want them to read more than -
sailor learned how to tie her shoes by herself yesterday. or benny wiggles in between us and sits content on the floor when rex hugs me.
i want them to read about how their dad shows commitment to reading God's word in the mornings before he starts works. i want them to read how we've been learning from the lives of judas and stephen - how not to live around Jesus as a fake, putting on a show for others to see how good we can look. but full of faith, wisdom and grace. how we're learning that we really do have so much more than we need and giving the extra and even not so extra away is what we're supposed to do. that in the day in/day out of laundry, dishes & work we're searching out ways to be the best we can be. that we're learning to do what's right today.
seriously what a calling, a goal it is to live full of faith, wisdom & grace. full of love. its exciting to have the bar set high.
they made truthful loins in their class at grandma's today.
this is the Lord's doing it is marvelous in our eyes. this is the day which the Lord has made let us rejoice and be glad in it. - psalm 118
