Summer Soltice is this weekend and as of today Summer has arrived. The date may not say it's so, but it is, trust me. I'm so thankful I don't have to work out in it. How do those men and women do it? My Dad does it and I have NO idea how. Whew! Where's the kiddie pool? Oh yeah, it's on my back porch full of leaves and dead grandaddy long legs...Think I'll just stay inside.
Update on Potty Patrol: Still no #2. But he didn't have any other accidents at school yesterday. I am so PROUD! Can't wait to hear how day two at school went.
Here's something to chew on: I was doing my daily blog reading and found this quote on the refineus site listed over there ----->
Do not be surprised that what God asked of you yesterday is insufficient for your journey of faith today. With Moses, God parted the waters, and then the people crossed over. With Joshua, the leaders were required to begin crossing first, and then the waters parted. In my life journey, I have found time and time again that God changes the parameters of my faith. He increases His expectation of me. What it means to live on the edge as your faith begins to develop is not the measure of faith when you walk in maturity. You should expect and desire that God would move from parting the waters while you stand on the shore to calling you to step out into the waters and experience the miracle happening around you. In the first, you watch the miracle. But in the second, you become a part of it. --Erwin McManus.
I'm reminded of this almost daily. Waiting for God's miracles and actually being a part of them are two very different things. I've matured in the past year, but I'm light years away from where I want to be. I want to jump right in. How? Well, I'm going to work on that and I'm sure He'll help me. We'll see how it goes...
