Neglect

I have really neglected the ole Bloggy lately.

I mean really, it's just a season of busyness.

Of summer, of youth camp, of Vacation Bible School, of... of lots of stuff.

I wish I had something fun or witty or entertaining to share with my two readers. But I don't. Fact of the matter is even if I did I've been so busy lately I probably wouldn't remember what it is.

Soon, like this fall, things will slow down. Until then, I'll have much, much more to type about this time next week.

Come back soon!

Today

Today my brain is full of about 15 different to-do lists.

I'm grouchy about gas prices and the amount of driving we're going to have to do this summer.

Money, I just keep thinking about money (or the lack thereof!)

Today, I helped a woman whose brain is full of "how am I going to feed my children?"

She's grouchy because she doesn't have a car and has to walk everywhere this summer.

Money, she's just not sure how much longer she can survive the lack thereof.

Isn't it funny how someone's "lack thereof" is another person's abundance? Today, I recognize that the Lord is the giver of my abundance, and today, I remember that with abundance comes the great and wonderful responsibility to give it away.

And I will do just that. Today and always.
