Over and over again...

 "I will sing to the LORD as long as I live. I will praise my God to my last breath! May he be pleased by all these thoughts about him, for I rejoice in the LORD. " Psalm 104:33-34

I am amazed at how I could be reading God's word for so long now and still find something new, I pray that when I am 90 I will still be in awe of the ability He has to reveal Himself new to me over and over again. 

How do I teach my children about the thankfulness that stirs in my heart towards God and all He has done, all He has made?  This is the task I face today.

How will you?  I am yet to find an answer...

Do I ever feel you?!

I have such conflicting feelings about the path my children will take to get there too. In order for me to obtain some inkling of the fullness of God and to be part of the sanctification process, God has so used experiences, my own good and bad decisions, and often just general messyness. While I want so badly for my kids to be being made complete, it is hard for me to acknowledge how painful that might be for them at times...and to be okay with the pain for them.
