That whole honesty, humility thing is just pretend because really in my heart of hearts I tend towards pride like the best/worst of them. I suppose admitting it makes me humble. But then realizing I'm admitting it makes me proud again. So we do the whole pride/humility/pride cycle. And I just have to lay it to rest and quit and not focus on it because to be really humble means to forget onesself and if I'm thinking of myself I'm not forgetting myself and being humble. But I suppose these are all thoughts for another post... hmmm. You inspire me! <br /><br />love you!<br />-sarahSarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06370095814271780946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1024768053002787146.post-79514884465002574392012-12-23T22:38:03.692-06:002012-12-23T22:38:03.692-06:00Sarah -

Where would we be without divine aid? Hmmm...in trouble! I love that 'in training for spiritual health...' I need to remember that.

I haven't had the opportunity of meet...Hi Sara-<br />I haven't had the opportunity of meeting you yet at Water's Edge (although maybe that's a good thing considering the whole lice, sick thing). Lisa Marie Vogt recommended your blog... I too blog and can appreciate sooooo much what you've been going through. I truly enjoyed this entry and want you to know I'm DEFINITELY subscribing. It sounds like your mishaps go hand in hand with our families...take comfort in numbers! About your running over sweet little ladies, at least you didn't run into a store leaving the kids in the car, (my parent's did that all the time and didn't realize the BIG mistake) visually keeping eyes on the car the whole time, when my beautiful, wonderful, sweet children started arguing about which Veggie Tales song should be on, drawing attention to people walking by. Let's just say the pain and guilt of that time in my life nearly crushed me. God's grace is sufficient and in the midst of unbearable turmoil, I humbled myself and clung to His promises. I look forward to reading more and more so, meeting you in person. Merry Christmas and I hope your family recovers in time... sometime I'll share the great food poisoning of Christmas 1999. It took me 5 years to eat ham again! :)<br />Cheri Clark (fittin'in the nest)Could Behttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03531549572115147545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1024768053002787146.post-59896935782054040562012-12-19T18:21:20.423-06:002012-12-19T18:21:20.423-06:00My goodness, Sarah. My mom and I have been praying...My goodness, Sarah. My mom and I have been praying for you and your family just because we knew of your family's illness -- not being able to imagine how you would cope with the care of 5 ill children when both you and Sam were ill yourselves -- not knowing of the misadventures that accompanied this. Thanks for sharing so vulnerably. We will continue to pray for you. And thank God for your mother-in-law.<br />Why do older moms and moms-in-law manage to stay well? I am home sick for the second time this school year. My mom's immune system is amazing. She never seems to catch what I have. It's always been that way. Maybe she was more obedient and respectful than I was : ) Even now I become impatient and less than tender when caring for her needs sometimes. She is never anything but gracious and sweet in response. God has a way of continuing to put growth opportunities in my path, especially when I have continually failed to meet the grade. He's doing the same thing at school. I'm in an intense spiritual training course there too -- where I'm learning not to consider my sins less important than the sins I scorn in those around me.<br />In training for spiritual health, with you,<br />Suzanne EvansAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
