teaching women to think on true things

March 13, 2013 By Lara

because the milk will probably spill

Yes. The milk will spill. And it will probably be chocolate. And it will probably spill on the floor you just mopped for the first time all month.

Not only that, the kids will run through the house with muddy boots. The dog will eat your still-warm, from-scratch cookies off the counter. The toilet will overflow because someone tried to flush a Lego creation. And the computer will crash just before you save that 800-word blog post — the one in which you poured out your heart with deep vulnerability.

I’m just here to encourage you.

 

The milk will probably spill.

I’m hanging out over at the Allume blog today. Click here to read the rest of this post.

 
Fill me, Lord…

What do you do to keep perspective when those daily annoyances arise?

    Had spilled milk yesterday and for once in my life kept my cool. Angie’s words were running through my head. http://angiesmithonline.com/2013/03/rushing-pausing-subtext-series/
