Just can't blog on a PC

My iBook is very, very sick. It's been temperamental lately, and is officially in a virtual coma. I am bringing it in for servicing and hoping that it will recover with a minimum of expense.

All that to explain that I just can't blog on the old clunky PC we have sitting in my son's room. It just doesn't flow...

There is nothing like my laptop in the living room while the family is watching a video or the news, and I can be part of the conversation, while having another in cyberspace.

When my iBook is back, I believe I will resume blogging more regularly.

Blessings,

What I learned on my Summer Vacation

HURRY is the enemy of HOLINESS.

Hurry makes me dizzy and short-tempered and focused on all the wrong things. I want to grow in holiness and hurry has no part in that. It takes time and devotion and focus to become a woman of God. I want to write this large on my heart and in my life so that I keep my priorities simple and in order--

Christ,
husband,
children,
ministry.

As I begin to get into my normal routine I want be overflowing with gratitude in my roles as wife to the most wonderful guy I've ever known, as mom to my amazing kids and as homeschooler to those three curious minds, as minister to college students and as shepherd to collegiate ministers, and as a child of God washing pots and pans and doing laundry in the spirit of Brother Lawrence.

May I always be in touch with the Spirit of God, ready for divine interruptions, and disciplined enough to be without hurry in all that I do, particularly in my relationships.

Help me, O Lord.
