I don't know if this makes sense or not....

I'm betting on not. I mean not literally betting - I AM baptist after all.

Can I just tell you, I take a little flak for not being serious enough. Sometimes being accused of taking God's goodness to lightly.

Oh honey.

If you only knew the depths from which I was saved. The height from which I have fallen.

So some people don't know me that well. And so they don't know. So they are welcome to their judgments. Not justified in judgment, but welcome to it. I do believe in free will.

Do you ever go through something that you may not want to share, but you just about can't contain the result that God is producing? Isn't it wonderful?

That's when I might substitute a funny story. Like having Q-Fat. I mean, not that Q-Fat wasn't real. Oh it was real. It's just that I may sub that story in for a more personal one that would most likely bore you tears. And cause great embarrassment to my family. And really, I embarrass them quite enough without having to add anything else. Doesn't everyone have "that" family member? Well, that's me. Yep, you're looking at her. Well, um, not literally, but you're, you know, reading her? Whatever.

So anyhoo...I get to really tell everyone out there The Truth about God's goodness that I am experiencing and no one has to tell me to put the cuckoo back in the clock.

Doesn't that make much more sense?

The other day Schyler was telling me how hard it was to understand everything about God. I reassured her that the Holy Spirit will reveal what we need when we are ready for it, so don't get upset when we study something that you just don't understand right away.

She replied with,"It's just so easy for you. You were just born knowing all this stuff."

BWAAAAAA!!!!

If she only knew...

And she will!

(Can I tell you, it was so hard for me to get this out halfway seriously. Not to say something about how, yes, indeed I was born knowing everything. Too bad for all you sinners! Oh the restraint! The self control!)
