Sayings

We are moving ahead at half the speed of light and twice the speed of sense.

If you think you can live without others you are mistaken; if you think others can't live without you, you are even more deluded.
- Hasidic saying

I never lose sight of the fact that just being is fun.

Tests

Heard this yesterday at church.

God will not give you a test that He knows you cannot pass.

Now, that's good stuff! Pretty cool to know that no matter what, you're gonna succeed! We all just gotta learn to relax while we're going through "stuff", because it will end and we will be victorious. As I've always said, no matter what, it's gonna be okay. No fun right now, but it gets better!

" ... You can trust God to keep temptation from becoming so strong that you can't stand up against it, for he has promised this and will do what he says. He will show you how to escape temptation's power so that you can bear up patiently against it."
I Corinthians 10:13

The best time of day is now

The first step in overcoming procrastination is to eliminate all excuses and reasons for not taking decisive and immediate action.

The fact is, the longer we take to act on God's direction, the more unclear it becomes.

from "An Enemy Called Average"

Time well spent

Sometimes little surprises come up, but with the right attitude, and a little adjustment, things can turn out great.

We unexpectedly had our foster daughter return for a couple days, but it has been fun! Had some great meals, ate some cake, played some go-karts on the computer - and a few other things I'm usually too busy to do.

But there is always time for what matters if you make it happen!

We always have time enough if we but use it tight.
- Johann Wolfegang von Goethe
