This is what I want to do today....and all days.



I want to let my husband and children know that I love them more than anyone else on this whole earth.
I want to live sacrificially and respond with kindness, gentleness and joy.
When I need to forgive, I want to be reminded of how much I’ve been forgiven.
I want to run and jump and play and chase.
I want to have a puppet show.
I want to write the Word of the Lord on my heart and our children’s hearts.
I want to show grace when the opportunity arises that it is needed.
I want to teach what is right not what is not right by my example of Christ living in me.
I want to blow bubbles.
I want to laugh.
I want to tickle.
I want to read stories of adventures.
I want to act out those adventures.
I want to make new adventures.
I want to not be afraid to make a mess.
I want to stop still long enough to look at the flowers and ladybugs.
I want to lay out in the backyard and look at the clouds.
I want to not be afraid to learn or try something new.
I want to love.
I don’t want to be afraid to make a mistake.
I want to rest in knowing God will complete His work in me.
I want to laugh at the days to come (absence of fear, and have a gentle and quiet spirit).
I want to be able to readily deviate from my plan upon God’s plan taking precedent.
I want my children to know I love them…and that their heavenly Father is even greater and loves them greater than I.
