A Good Reminder

Been needing this reminder as we plunge into another fun, busy week...

from www.girltalkhome.com:

So what does it look like to glorify God in the midst of a busy season?
The first must-have to survive—and even thrive—during busy seasons: humility.

I still remember the wise and helpful counsel my husband CJ shared with me many years ago when I was having one of those “I just can’t get it all done" breakdown crying sessions. When he finally got the chance to speak, he said: “Carolyn, only God completes His to-do list. We are not God. We are finite creatures with serious limitations. Therefore we need to humble ourselves by accepting our limitations and draw upon God’s strength to simply do what we can.” CJ’s advice not only helped me then, but continues to benefit me to this day.

I love that blog & that post. : )

Oh my goodness, I always think about calling you, but then I realize what time of day it would be at your house. Those 2 hours can really throw me off! Would love to catch up. When do you typically have school? Maybe I can catch you one day after that.
