Truth

The song says:

lead me, guide me

walk beside me

help me find the way

teach me all that I must do,

to live with Him someday

It does not say:

force me, chain me

pull me with a rope

make certain I stay on this path (even if I don't want to)

force this religion down my throat

until I resent it and only obey out of fear

(That was the other guys plan. Remember?)

We have our agency. It is the greatest gift that God has given us and one that He will never take away. We each have to decide for ourselves.

The truth is that I am no more responsible for their good personal choices than I will be responsible for their bad choices if they take other paths.

Inspired Truth

Are you having a bad day?

Do you need encouragement?

Are you feeling forlorn?

Have you taken one step forward and two steps back lately?

Do your challenges seem all consuming?

Do you have too much on your plate?

Are you spread too thin?

Is life giving you lemons?

Find respite, relief, comfort, joy and courage in these words from an apostle of God.

Believe in good things to come!

Summer Looks Like This:

Babies in the sunshine.

Swimming at sunset.

Liam on the dock at the lake.

Lauren's first time riding the four-wheeler all by herself.

Summer rain showers that leave cool outlines of a bike on the driveway.

Trying out the skate park across the street.

Eating lunch and reading books under the canopy of the big maple.

Dragon flies come to visit.

Blue skies and open windows.

Something

"Right now, list ten smells you remember. Be specific."

1. The smell of a newborn babe (before the first bath).

2. Nathalie's perfume in France.

3. My Dads shop when he worked at Hobart.

4. The Elmer's house after it burned down.

5. A boulongerie.

6. The soap Mike always washed his face with (when we were dating) after work so that he would be fresh and clean when he came to be with me.

7. My grandma McCartys house.

8. BabyMagic lotion.

9. A burning car from when I got in the accident with Angela.

10. Dirt bike exhaust from when we use to ride at the lake as kids.

Liamism

The air conditioner sits on the floor of the dining room, waiting to be installed in the window. But first Mime needs to do some modifications to the window sill. This morning Liam was sitting on it. I was feeding the baby and we had the following conversation:

Liam: Mommy, did Papa put this here yesterday?

Me: (shaking me head) No, it wasn't yesterday.

Liam: You mean it was a veeeeeeerrrrry yesterday?

Me: Yes, it was a few days ago.
