Faith

Faith is a funny thing.  You can have so much of it about somethings and very little about others.  Since you know how very type A I am and that I like to plan, the future is a very scary thing.

Lately I have been thinking a lot about the future.  It probably has something to do with school wanting us to hand in Fall registration.  My mind tells me I  need to plan something out and the way my body has been feeling tells me to take it one day at a time.  I haven't even given much thought as to what will be for dinner.  I know we will not starve, there is food a plenty (even if we have to resort to left over Easter candy).

Last night we had a mis mosh of  left overs with some freshly baked potatoes to balance it out.  Everyone ate something different, but we cleaned out the fridge and didn't throw the food away.  I think that the children like to have a choice.  They feel a little special that they are eating something that no one else is.  And my hubby made my night by doing the dishes for me!  I was so greatful.

I know that I need to pray more and worry less.  I once told one of my sisters that I felt that sometimes decisions are not necessarily right or wrong.  Both choices can be good, just different.  For example would you like Rocky Road or Strawberry cheese cake ice cream?   Neither choice will sell your soul, however, a lot of what we decide depends upon how we live out that decision.  There are no redeeming qualities to eating the entire quart of ice cream and small bowls shared with loved ones can feed the body and the soul.  Perhaps the decisions I have before me are like that.  There are pros and cons to all options and in the end it will not matter what I choose, just that I live out the choice in a Holy manner.

By the way I would choose Rocky Road with wipped topping.
