Challenges

Saturday 8/30, I turn the TV on for the first time in 30 days. Kurt our MS pastor asked us to Fast for a month, so I choose TV. I missed the noise, not so much the programs and was only tempted a few times. Did move the remotes away from the chair. Did a lot of thinking about the MS kids and the program, especially their families. Prayed for our leaders and our church as the new year starts. God has plan and we are a huge part of it. My prayer for all of us is to be a reflection of Him. We need to be Grace givers with generous spirits. I friend share with me that sometimes God's plan isn't just "to do", but "to be". Such a wise thought, something I need to think about. Challenges mean change and change can be fun and exciting, or scary and hard. That's the chose we have. God is in control and He loves us unconditionally. So the son who is in harms way and still enjoys the creation, family and friends experiencing the hills and valleys and still laugh are my examples of Faith.
