"My story is important not because it is mine, God knows, but because if I tell it right, the chances are you will recognize that in many ways it is also yours. Maybe nothing is more important than that we keep track, you and I,of these stories of who we are and where we have come from and the people we have met along the way because it is precisely through these stories, in all their particularity,as I have long believed and often said, that God makes himself known to each of us most powerfully and personally." -Frederick Buechner

Day Two of the "Life is simple" challenge

So I can say that my attitude has been great for nearly 36 hours now! I'm smiling a silly grin.  I know it hasn't been that long but really a weight has been lifted.  I don't have to figure everything out. I don't have to make everyone happy.

God is in charge. God is love. (I John 4:8) A real sacrificial, no matter what kind of love. Which means He wants the best for me. Not just good. Best!

I'm am to love Him with all I've got. Then love others. (Matthew 27:37-39)  How freeing!

Simple. How do these thought effect your everyday life?
