Learning to laugh at ourselves can be healing for us, especially when we realize that we often take ourselves too seriously. Thank God for His abundant mercy, grace, and acceptance of our silly selves.

How I got here is a long tale, but quite a few months ago, when I was disgusted with job-searching, I asked, "God, why couldn't I just work THERE?" And now I do.

Recently God showed me that I am too focused on hoping that certain things in my life won't change instead of appreciating what I have as long as I have it. I already have a horrible record when it comes to predicting my future, so what makes me still think I know how my life will unfold? I suspect that getting this into my head would help me enjoy life a lot more. I'll be praying that you too can find joy, not fear, in every new chapter of your life (pun totally intended).Bethanynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3977845308848151129.post-28635876626939573602012-10-31T01:11:24.044-05:002012-10-31T01:11:24.044-05:00I know how you feel!

Our God is plenty big enough to cover and keep you. The Word also tells us to not lean on your own understanding, but in all our ways we are to acknowledge Him. He will direct your paths. And... Jesus said not to worry about tomorrow, today has enough cares of its own. May the peace that surpasses understanding guard your heart and your mind in Christ Jesus.Davidhttp://www.krycho.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3977845308848151129.post-82756713249906784322012-10-30T17:15:24.115-05:002012-10-30T17:15:24.115-05:00Glad to be on this ever-changing journey with you,...Glad to be on this ever-changing journey with you, my friend!

That might sound preachy, but what I mean is, our relationship with God encompasses all the things we do, even skills that are specific to us as individuals. It's so hard to remember that, though, partly (I think) because career is everything in this culture. I know I need total renewal of my mind in this area.Jaimie Krychohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04065611005472592459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3977845308848151129.post-75848053172999450412012-10-23T14:55:35.945-05:002012-10-23T14:55:35.945-05:00Relate, relate, relate.
