This morning was definitely a morning for coffee after my busy weekend. I have pretty much weened myself off of coffee, and I swear that it actually makes me more tired when I drink it. Maybe it’s the letdown from all the sugar that I put in it.
I became a Sunday School teacher this weekend. I know, as if I’m actually qualified for something like that. Luckily, it’s only 3 & 4 year olds. I think I can handle that.
After church, the worship team visited a lady from our church who is very ill. We worshiped with her, and I felt my throat tighten up in order to hold back tears. Our plans are not His…Our plans are not His. This is something that has been continually floating through my mind, day in and day out. His plan is beyond anything I can ever imagine. So, why’s it so hard to let Him lead?
In the meantime, the onset of September means the busyness begins. Soccer starts for Jaxon tonight, school starts next week, a new Bible study, possible 5k, sewing, craft shows, MOPS, garage sale this Saturday {doubtful}… How do you all balance life? Or is there not really an answer, and we’re all in this struggle together?
{all photos taken with phone, because that’s saves oodles of time}
I have no answer for the busy stuff…preschool and ballet start in a couple of weeks for my oldest, and I’m already running around like crazy with MOPS stuff. :s Which Bible study are you doing???
Okay I was talking with someone about this very thing recently-about being so busy and the person turns to me and was like- you will always be busy and there will always be something to do so make sure you are picky about where you put your free time and make it count.
loved this post.
his plans are not our plans. his plans are higher.
needing him to move in some areas in our lives.
having to remind myself of that truth over and over and over.
his ways are not my ways.
his plans are not my plans.
his ways and his plans are higher.
Lord, help us to trust you more and more with things unseen.
Oh, such great photos!
