the little things

It was one of those nights. As I watched each hour tick away, I became more frustrated that my mind wouldn’t stop racing. I began to dwell on the irritating moments of my day, and let my aggravation take over, until God intervened. I suddenly realized how often I overlook those harder to notice moments that remind us why life is worth living. As a result, I decided I would make a more conscious effort to seek out the moments of joy in each day. Perhaps it will inspire you to do the same.

planting flowers in memory of my Grandpa
using underwear to change the world (or at least one small corner of it)
travel Scrabble
sitting on the porch
the power of the cross - this week's Bible story/video led one of my students to say a prayer and accept Christ into her heart (and have the courage to tell me)! I am once again reminded of the gift of Christian education and my reasons for being a part of it.
