I have a facebook account. I initially opened it to keep in touch with our family from up north. Now it is more of a keep in touch with my friends thing.

Today I spent the afternoon sanding our drywall in our room and making sure every nail hole was filled with putty so I can have smooth walls to paint. I thought that this really proved #7!
What really made me think about my list today was #18. I was looking over the lesson for tonight ladies Bible study. I was going to teach on it 2 weeks ago, but there was a meeting for youth parents and that drained our class, and last week I was very sick. I think there was a meeting for pre-k - 5th grade too. Anyway, it was Eph.5:1-21. When it talks about how we talk and only speaking thanksgiving and praise. It also talks about living spirit-filled lives. I feel like the Holy Spirit wants me to say something and I don't then I say something dumb and worry about how people would take it...
Why do we do the things we don't wanna do and we don't do the things we should do?? I know I'm not the only person who has struggled here. Paul talks of the same thing. I just wish I could express my heart more easily. I think if we all looked at people's intentions, life wouldn't be so complicated. I know if everyone knew my intentions I would never worry about how people took the things I say.
