I took a day off and stayed home with my men. We slept in, the boys made pancakes and we went on a hike at Rockhound State Park. I played on Facebook way too much and am finishing dinner. It's been such a relaxing day.
I think we don't do that often enough. You know, throw up the white flag and just surrender.
In order to live a complete life in Christ we have to surrender to Him everyday. I try to start my day, before my feet even hit the ground, by surrendering to God. I pray that all I do is for His glory. I fall short of the mark often, but when I do give everything up to Him, my days are better.
I am struggling with worry. It can be crippling when the Enemy sneaks in and grabs you where you are most vulnerable.
God has not left me hanging out to dry yet. I have to keep telling myself and beleiving and praying that His will be done.
Today I Am Thankful For:
1. a recipe by Emeril
2. apple pie
3. the outdoors
4. Bear in the Big Blue House
5. snuggling

I have been searching for suggestions for good books to read. I am looking forward to a few relaxing days in March, and want to find a really good book. I have enjoyed reading some of the books on your list. I loved reading all of Jan Karon's books and enjoy her website at www.mitfordbooks.com. Thanks for sharing your ideas for good reading!
