Do you ever find yourself saying this to your children? "It's OK...now just go and play"...and they run off chasing and squealing, smiles and laughter on their faces. And I watch them go...wondering why I don't just run out there with them...no cares, no worries, no saving the ills of society all by myself...no carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders...no fretting over what their future is going to look like...no spending hours filling out legislator's contact forms...all of whom may or may not read my thoughts and pleads.
Let me know if you get this balancing act between being responsible and non-apathetic....and....letting it all land where it's going to land....figured out. Trusting that this is all in God's hands and there's a reason beyond the confusion.
I mean, I realize all of that...but how much does God require of us to be industrious and do...and how much is it just relaxing in His will??? Like I said, when you get it figured out, please let me know. In the meantime, we're going ice skating on the lake down the road...yes, ice skating in March!! Don't ya love it...??!! Our kiddos sure do!! Bye for now! : D
