Not Me Monday


Today is a day off from school and I changed my work schedule to be at home today with the kids. While attempting to come up with an interesting post or attempt to use my day of lounging around into a way to encourage others to be their best...I found "Not Me Monday".

Not Me! Monday is a list of all the things that there is no way in tarnation I did this week. And if anyone says that they saw me doing any of these things, they are totally lying.

So, it was Not Me! who pulled a bowl from the deep freezer and planned to feed to the dog, when under the freezer burn discovered that it was a dish of Italian Sausage and Pasta. So, it was definitely Not Me! who put it in a baking dish, sprinkled it with cheese and served it up for Sunday lunch!

It was Not Me! this morning who decided to wait until after my workout to get dressed...it is now 12:46 and guess what??? Still in the pajamas.

It was Not Me! this morning who let my kids sleep until nearly 11:00 AM so I could have some uninterrupted computer time. But as I rationalized, they will work hard later in the day, because someone - Not Me! still has the undecorated Christmas tree in the living room that needs to be put up.

Well, now that someone Not Me! feels better, they should get up, get dressed and get to work! Happy Monday!

Sometimes We Score, Sometimes We Block

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play. During the last game, my son scored two goals, they were the only goals of the game. In today's game the team scored eight goals. My son came up afterwards to me and said, "I didn't score today, but I blocked". What a powerful truth those words can hold. In life, sometimes we score, sometimes we block. Sometimes we do great things, we excel, we achieve, we meet our goal - we score! There are also times we see the needs of others, sometimes they are sad or hurting, we block their hits. We look out for them so they can score. We...

Word Filled Wednesday – Act Justly

He has shown you, O man, what is good;       And what does the LORD require of you                But to do justly, To love mercy,       And to walk humbly with your God?    Micah 6:8 Sometimes we struggle so hard with the question “What does God want us to do and be?”  This verse is a simple yet powerful reminder of some simple things that God requires of us.  Act and do justly, love mercy and walk humbly before God.  There are numerous opportunities each day to do justly, to do the right thing or to make the right choice.  We love mercy when we show kindness or mercy oftentimes to those who do not deserve it.  Walking humbly before God is acknowledging He alone is God.  He is the I AM – no one else is.  When we give Him the glory He is worthy of, it will humble our heart before Him....
