Musings

"Don't let this throw you - things may not unfold the way you think they will when you're following god, but remember, He's after both our transformation and our joy." -John Eldredge

What is God teaching me through my present circumstances? How is He working toward my transformation?

*teaching me to be calm and collected and trusting under stress
*showing me who He created me to be and how that person fits into her surroundings
*reminding me that no matter how busy I am, I should always still make time for the simple joys of life like watching a sunset or working on a creative project

3 great points Katie - the last was especially good for me. I get out of balance sometimes - either being lazy and only doing those things I enjoy, or I get too wrapped up in my agenda and forget to pause and admire the little things God gives us. I really enjoyed hearing this, and as e said, how this little quote applies to you. Love you!
