-because she might be cold...ha-
i have been reading in Exodus the complaints of the Hebrews as they were being lead away from slavery. looking at it from their point of view I could understand some of their complaints, and in my life i began to sound exactly like them, ignoring God visibly taking my hand guiding me to better grounds, much like a child complaining "I don't want to nap!!", (as they are being led to the kitchen for cake). Even know i can still feel the rebelliousness of my heart knowing the truth "i'm headed for cake" but dragging my feet because it's not on my terms.

i am not proud of this and this is not okay & something i am allowing him to strip away but God's grace is continues & my potter continues to mold me into something greater, and while he molds and pushes and shapes me i will try to remember in the pain how if the Hebrews would have just stood back they would have scene a miracle EVERY morning falling from the sky!
even when circumstances are hard God has surrounded my family with more people that love us than we could possibly name. I definitely do not deserve this. Watching Joslin surrounded this weekend by everyone, all the love they pass on to her, surrounding her with a environment of encouragement joy, laughter and love well it's enough to send this momma in happy tears the whole drive home.
Our family.
My church family.
My friends.
Thank you.
