I'm Learning

I'm learning...

that I still love to teach, but I love being a mom more.

that community is essential.

that I still need to really digest Bonhoeffer's words that "...self-sacrifice makes community possible."

that I am capable of doing a lot more that I thought I was. It really is a matter of priorities.

that there is nothing better than coming home to people who love you.

that God is always doing something and is just looking for an available heart to take action.

that "the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it."

that God uses my boys to teach me about himself.

that it is late, and I am tired and have a way too busy day tomorrow.

What are you learning?

...Opfer bringen tut weh.
...Ich muss weniger werden, und Er mehr.
...auch wenn mein Leben nicht genau so aussieht, wie ich es mir erträumt habe, ist es doch 'God's best for me'.
...self-control
...dankbar sein in ALLEN Dingen.
...Gehorsam.
