I am really tired right now because it is two hours past my regular bedtime, so I will try to quickly remember what happened today. I did finish the “Who have you been critical of?” question this morning. At least the names of all the people I wrote down. I do realize if I was to literally answer this question thoroughly I would have to list every single one of my family members all the way into quite extended family. I would have to list everyone at my church. There is a good chance I would have to list everyone I have ever met at anytime.
The nice part about this question is a lot of the people I am critical of are “have been’s” not “are’s”. I am not near as critical as I used to be. I am so thankful that when I came to Jersey I was desperate enough to start doing the right thing and ask Jesus to change my heart. I do believe often obedience comes before heart change. At least I think it always has for me.
I looked forward to a social activity today. That is huge for me. I NEVER look forward to social activities. Almost never. Pretty much never. I am excited about this life. Now I am going to bed, excited to be a changing human, excited inventory will not last forever. Just for another two months.
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. – Jeremiah 29:11
