  • Choosing to live when life is not as you planned.

    Our heart is to make God bigger to a world that doesn’t know Him. We’re choosing to live.”

     

  • Interruptions

    “I think I find most help in trying to look on all interruptions and hindrances to work that one has planned out for oneself as discipline, trials sent by God to help one against getting selfish over one’s work.  Then one can feel that perhaps one’s true work – one’s work for God- consists in doing some trifling haphazard thing that has been thrown into one’s day.  It is not a waste of time, as one is tempted to think, it is the most important part of the work of the day- the part one can best offer to God.  After such a hindrance, do not rush after the planned work; trust that the time to fnish will be given sometime, and keep a quiet heart about it.”    Annie Keary, 1825-1879

    (I love being interrupted by these sweeties!)

    This writing reminds me of Ps. 16:5.. Lord you have ‘assigned me my portion’!

    Each minute of our day is precisely assigned by the God who created the universe. No one can thwart His plan. Why then do I believe my plan for the day is higher and more noble than what He has assigned?

     

    “Lord, may my eyes be on You today and may you grant me a quiet heart as I learn to trust you with the seemingly interruptions of my day!”
