Dearest you,
"The Purpose Driven Life" day five: Seeing Life from God's View
"What is your life?" -James 4:14
*We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are. -Anais Nin
*The way we see our lives SHAPES our lives.
*Life on earth is a test, a trust, and a temporary assignment.
*Character is both developed and revealed by tests, and all of life is a test.
*The more God give us, the more responsible he expects us to be.
* At the end of our life on earth we will be evaluated and rewarded according to how well we handled what God entrusted to us.
"Unless you are faithful in small matters, you won't be faithful in large ones."-Luke 16:10
Today I was sweating while I did my school work. We have yet to turn on the AC, and it's only April. It's going to be a hot and muggy summer. On a brighter note, we can soon douse ourselves in the swimming pool and drink ice-cold lemonade and play kick-ball at dusk. And we can make friends with lovely wasps like the one who landed--and remained-- on me (in our house) this evening and scared any wits I had left from yesterday out of me. You can blame him if none of this makes any sense.
I played a new card game with Blake. Of course I won. I watched Thumbelina with the little girls while trying to avoid a heat stroke upstairs. I'd love the fairy prince...if only his voice sounded less like a little girl's :)
The chocolates I hoarded from the Easter eggs yesterday are melting on my desk. They still taste delicious.
And my brothers mumbled unintelligibly when they came to bid me good night.
How's that for a random-yet-fairly-accurate account? :D Praise God for variety!
Con amore,
Sophie
