Be intentional. Be relational. Be selfless.
In all of your relationships the effort you put into them, and your attitude, have a direct affect on you and those around you. My heart is to encourage through sharing my joys and challenges – the good, the bad and the ugly. Words served up with a bit of sweet, a dash of spicy and a healthy serving of random reality.

Why I Quit!

Jan
31

I had a plan.

I had it all figured out.

I knew what I wanted.

And I was going for it.

That is five I’s.

Things are not going as planned.

Disappointment.

Again.

Why?

Can you relate?

I know you can – because this scenario has repeated itself over and over in my life and no doubt the same is true for you.

And then…this morning, I listened to Misty Edwards sing Finally I Surrender.

 “All I want is you to have your way

You are the potter and I am the clay

All I need is you to have your way

You are creator and I am what you made

Finally I surrender…

You are God

I am man

You are sovereign”

Yet another gentle reminder…more of Him…less of me.

    Sooooooo been there, my friend. Yesterday! Lol. I have a lot of plans, but I tend to ignore the Great I Am when I make my little plans… Thanks for the reminder.
