"The family should be a closely knit group. The home should be a self-contained shelter of security; a kind of school where life’s basic lessons are taught; and a kind of church where God is honored; a place where wholesome recreation and simple pleasures are enjoyed."

--Billy Graham

still learning

Many of us learned the song as a child...
He's still working on me, to make me what I ought to be
It took six days to make the moon and the stars, the sun and the earth and jupiter and mars.
How loving and patient He must be,
cause He's still working on me

That song is still true at 26 years of age. There are days that I forget that God is working on making me who I should be and that I shouldn't try to mess things up. I quickly forget that God is in charge and has always shown himself in my life. I'm so thankful for a loving and patient God who continues to work on me and show me who I should be.

Lord, help me every day to remember that YOU are in charge of my life. Help me to be a better wife. Help me to be a better leader to the teens and to our church. Help me to be a better friend. But most of all Lord, help me to be better at striving to be more like you.
