camp...
We are officially moved into our little cabin from Didsbury, which will be our little home for the next 4 months. Students are here, cars are in and out, the pantry is full and there are always dishes; we are full swing into spring season! Everyone loves Benny, he gets passed around a lot, fortunately he is a pretty easy going kid.
Im finding the transition from last summer to this being a little tricky; with the big change being a child. Last summer I was fully capable and available, and this summer, Im still fully capable, but not so available. Its easy to let myself care what people might be thinking, but the times I can put that aside, I find myself wondering what it means to actually just be a supportive wife and mom. (ps. MOM?! Holy cow...)
This, I believe, is probably a good place to figure all this out and fail.
I am also seeing more how immature I am in this relationship with Jesus; how slow I am to learn, and how little faith I seem to have. The LORD has continually used Benny, by bringing thoughts of His illustrations of children in Scripture. Entering the Kingdom like a child, having a child like faith, craving milk not solid food...those sorts of things. Recognizing that I have a lot of pride in my heart, a very serious, yet somehow acceptable disease, that spreads into all other areas of sin. "Wretched man that I am! Who will set me free from this body of death? Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! " And may I honor You Lord. Help me to truly understsand.
