The Silver Lining




I have been extremely on the run!! And yet I am getting fat (Shelby, I am not whining!!). Tired to the bones too. But the fire is in my bones (like old Jeremiah ... can't remember if he was old, but I think he said it somewhere!).

Yesterday, I had visitors from Spain and Netherlands. As we were sharing in my quaint little room in the office, we suddenyl found our voices rising in excitement. I forgot that I had quite a few sermons unfinished. I forgot that our Wordilicious Conference is in 5 days time, and lots of work to catch up. I forgot time!!! (I remembered quickly enough when they left!).

Why? Cos, as we were RE-TELLING the stories of our lives and our experiences in the FES family, as they kept "wow"ing and "ooh"ing at our experiences ... we just felt led to RE-MEMBER that all our stories were God's miracles in our lives. We ended our time praying and celebrating God ... not our stories or experiences. To me, I had a feast yesterday.

So this picture is apt to describe the Lord in my life : MY STAYING HAND, MY SERENITY!
