I wonder what God's list for me would look like? Quite probably NOTHING like what MY list looks like. Hmmm. I too live for the lists! I wonder what God's list for me would look like?

But then I lose them. Never fails. Good thing God has His own list for me, huh? Because I clearly can't be trusted with one. I sometimes make lists, too. But then I lose them. Never fails.

I know. We're all different -- which is how God made us! :)<br /><br />And I need to write "God isn't finished with ME yet!" -- and post it on my fridge. It'd be a good reminder when life or circumstance gets you down. HE always has big things in store for us. <br /><br />Hugs! Beautiful post, Mary — so well said.

I am probably not doing many of the things I thought I would be doing.

Never imagined I would be a sahm of 3 starting to sell bracelets, who loves to take photos and blog!

He simply calls us to sit at HIS feet just the way we are and to define ourselves in HIM.

Great post Mary!

I look at it as having thoughts swimming around in my head, not synchronized swimming, more like drowning in a whirl pool. I feel like if I can write it down it gets things out and when I get to check stuff off it is like "wow, I actually did do something today, or this year, or with myself in general". Thanks for sharing I think everyone can relate to being a work in progress. I feel the same way about lists.
