grace.

just one of those times when i'm feeling less than adequate. weary. can't quite get my focus on Things Above no matter how hard i try. wanting to let His grace be sufficient...and i know that it is...but i can't feel it. 2 big "thoughts" in my head tonite....

  • dwight edwards is right: "comparison is the thief of joy." no comparisons, dianna! it does no good. and the apostle paul is right: they who compare themselves...are not wise.

  • i don't understand why some days i snap and some days i bend. some days i can have all the patience in the world....other days, i have none. WHY IS THAT??

i had high hopes of getting the house straightened, putting clean sheets on the bed, taking a shower and crawling into bed with one of the many books waiting for me - all by 10:00 (one of my most favorite things in the world is to have a clean body in clean pajamas in clean sheets in a clean house! it's the "hat trick" of my world - except it's 4 things instead of 3 hockey goals...).


but here it is, close to 10:00 and i've only done 1/2 of one of the four (and maybe a 1/4 of one) -- the house is semi-straightened....and the clean sheets are in the dryer ready to be put on the bed. oh well. maybe my new goal will be 10:30. 10:30 doesn't sound quite as sweet as 10:00....but sweeter than 11:00.
