Lessons from the past few weeks:
~ Give others the grace that you wish they'd give to you, whether they deserve it or not. The people we least want to give grace, are usually the people that need it most.
~ Praise the Lord. Always, always, always praise the Lord!!! Every day and in every situation, through every bump and through every misunderstanding.
~ Be Godly, even when you've been terribly wronged. You still want a clear conscience before God at the end of each day.
~ When you're tired, don't let the one tiny thing that didn't go quite right overshadow all the other good and beautiful things the Lord was able to do through you, His servant.
~ When you finally sit down for a second, take a deep breath and rest your mind. Stop and pray. Roll the things He has done over and over in your mind while you gaze out at the hazy blue green mountains. He can speak when we stop to listen.
~ Read the Word, even when you're so tired you don't feel like it's soaking in. Read the Word. It's spirit nourishment when you can't feel it. You don't have to feel nourishment. His Word nourishes through all seasons, all the time.
Through the busy seasons, I am thankful that leaning on Him sustains us.
