I just love you sister…we are kindred spirits with that rigidity and I am grateful to praise God for doing a gracious work in me too. We could sip some java and laugh about the madness He has brought us from…thank you Jesus. You bless me richly girl…richly. Thank you for what you do to get your bloggin’ in.

Thanks for this!

Seriously. And I want to measure my days against my to do list. I hate that, because days are so much more than completed (or not completed) to do lists.

They are bigger than what [messes] are seen with our eyes. Those messes represent a life created. Such a helpful (and needed reminder) for me. *Thank you* Lara. You bless, friend!

“My life is no longer mine.” Such deep truth, Joyce. Thank you.

It is difficult to let go. I have to make the conscious choice, especially when life gets messy. (literally) But it is freeing. Blessings, friend.

God has absolutely used my kids to make me fluid. Otherwise I would go crazy because there’s too much whiny and too many spills to be “convenient.” xoxo

It’s fun to watch them when no one is looking — especially when they have conversations. Blessings.

I like how you related it to “true love.” Yes. Jesus set the example. Love is sacrificial. xoxo

I would get very upset about these interruptions that ruined my plans. Than I realized, I gave my life to Christ, my life is no longer mine. While I am not happy about the interruptions I handle them with a lot more peace realizing that I’m in good hands.
