Words To Live By

"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense."
Ralph Waldo Emerson

in the way

ever been in life when you pray for God to move and you feel like you are left standing there, still waiting.
there was this little girl at work today. her mom was shopping and had a basket full (to the top) with products. the little girl wanted to "carry it" but because it was so heavy she was just dragging it. 'Cept her foot was in the way so every time she pulled the basket it wouldn't move. She got so frustrated.
That scenario is played out in my life a few times. Me being the little girl and the basket being anything from decisions to people in my life. And i get made cause I want them to move or be moved, and I want the situation to go the way I want it too, but I am the one standing in the way.
The best advice I can give tonight. Get out of your own way. God wants to work, but if you are to busy directing the show, he will just stand back and wait.
