lessons

Through last month there has been a spirit of opposition that has dogged me. This is the voice that has said, "You had a nice run, now it's time to find a position in marketing or some other vocation outside of the ministry. In no way would I infer that this is why the past few days of trial have occured but I know that it is somewhere in the mix.

I'm also reminded that God works in His way and in His time.

When it comes to parenting, I've felt like a 6th grader in a calculus class. I see the scribbles but I can't quite get my brain around it.

God continually reminds me that I am not Him. I can't get everybody in my life to behave. Such a simple lesson but one that I must confess I have to learn again. There are no easy formulas out there. Anyway. Just though I'd write a few lines about what God is teaching me.

God is good. Even when we don't understand.
