Tim and I were talking about the past year and goal setting/resolution stuff. I have A LOT of things that I would like God to change in me for 2008. Instead of giving God a To Do List, I want the coming year's theme to follow a prayer that I keep on my refridgerator. I'll share it here so that you all can remind me of it when I get whiny this year!
Whatever Thy Will
Whatever Thy will,
Lord, keep me still.
Thy way is best;
So let me rest.
Let come what may
To me today,
Sunshine or rain,
Pleasure or pain,
Gladness or grief
Distress; relief,
May I believe
All I recieve
Is sent in Love
Down from above.
So let me rest;
Thou knowest best.
Whatever Thy will,
Lord, keep me still.

Thy Will, not my will has been what He is teaching me. I love that you wrote this down because it is something I have been discussing with God. The whole Thy instead of my. I am sorry you have been sick;that is so not fun. I have been learnig to have patience and that it is ok for me to get out of the house to the gym for a little recovery time to be fresh for my girl's. Matt is out of town for the next 3 days so it will be either a battle zone or bliss. He is doing tons of traveling in January. Every week we have travel something. I miss you guys. Does my sweet Jesus not know this travel business would be easier surrounded by dear freinds in the land of Oklahoma. (Again the THY WILL BE DONE< i don't won't to rob myself of HIM
