Recently, it seems, there has been a serge of scripture based status updates on Facebook. Never a bad thing, however, I find myself basing my thoughts on said scripture on my personal feelings of the poster. I know, I'm a horrible person. It got me thinking, if I'm so biased and unwilling to "listen" to what others have to say, regardless of content, but based entirely on my own opinions of them, then what kind of witness am I? In other words, is other people's views on how I am, as a person, hindering the ability of God to use me to reach out to others? I know I'm not perfect, obviously, so why do I harbor such feelings of doubt and criticism when other people wish to relay their spiritual views via Facebook? I guess I need to continue to look inward (it's a neverending quest surely) and make sure I'm making myself available to hear the Word of God wherever it may be and also, to make sure my personal behaviors aren't inhibiting my witness.
On less serious matters, we have been enjoying ourselves here in LC. Last night we went to NMSU and heard the marching band play on the green while eating frozen custard from Caliches. It was a nice way to spend the evening and the kids had a ball. Yesterday ended my babysitting job and we are now trying to get ourselves into a good and productive schedule. Wish us luck.... :D
Remembering how truly blessed I am in every single moment...
