One day at a time

Today the church is having a big picnic (bring your own stuff) and then fireworks at La Mirada Regional. We decided to not go. Too much walking, last time we had to walk half a mile to park and to get the car.
Looking at the lovely pictures of the babies. Just think of all they will be learning, simply amazing.
Reading what Will has written is a joy and a half. Grace, ah, glorious theme! How easy and how elusive. We seem built to strive and how different is the real thing. A couple of months ago I sold a copy of GRACE to a guy at church who always seemed to be striving and never making it. Sunday I saw him and we chatted and then I asked if he had been able to work his way through the book. Wow!! Lit up like the Christmast tree of old!! Put his hand on his heart and said, "No more trying to prove myself." he got the message. Toughest lesson we have to learn, letting God do the work as we stand there watching. So good to have Joy with us at least for a short time. We got to hug her, anyway.
