Importance

I came across this quote this evening while scrapping: "Some things are very important, and some things are very UNimportant...to know the difference is what we are given life to find out." While that's not what life is ALL about, it plays a part. In my own life, I have found out that when I focus on the things that aren't important, I waste time and energy. I am a happier person when I focus on the things I feel are important.

Missions

This month we've been talking about missions at Grace. This time every year, I get this knot in my stomach that Dr. Murray talked about last Sunday. I would sell all my possessions and move to someplace I've never been, to tell people about Jesus who have never even heard He exists! However, it's not just my decision. I have a husband who loves helping people but when it comes down to leaving good ole' Holmes County, he can't/won't do it. I asked him today on the way home from church if he gets the same knot deep within the pit of his stomach and he said he doesn't. So as you can see, I'm torn. Torn between wanting to do what I feel the Holy Spirit is placing within me and being obedient to my better half. Having been to Costa Rica two times, and other various parts of the US, knowing how Christ uses a willing vessel and the blessings received by being available, is unbelievable! I just want to stick a for sale sign in the yard and head off into the wild blue yonder, taking comfort in the fact that He has it all planned out. Will you pray with me that something gives?
