I apologize for my month long absence. I will endeavor to be more faithful. I can hardly believe that summer is half over. Back to school ads are filling up TV, the WWW and social media. All to remind me that time marches ever onward.
It has been a quieter summer, I am working pretty much full time while trying to give Snowflake some fun summer memories. My childhood is full of summer travel memories. Alas, that is not to be for my child, as my job pays the bills but not any frills. Still, I am thankful for my job and the people I work with. It is a great place to be.
This week is VBS at our church. 4 evenings of Jesus, Joy and fun.
My Snowflake loves VBS. She will be reciting the verses and doing the hand motions to the songs all year. I love that it is a fun way to learn about Jesus.
That's what I don't get. As adults we tend to take the fun out of our faith. We were created by God and He has a terrific sense of fun. Have you seen some of the crazy animals He thought up? Who do you think gave us laughter and joy?
God is holy and righteous yes. We need to treat Him with respect and reverance due to Him as God, but also have fun. Be a fun person. Enjoy this limited time we have.
Do things that make you laugh and smile. Ride that death coaster, hike that mountain, shoot that basketball, dance that jig, read in that hammock, be like Nike and do it, have fun!
Pay your bills, study Scripture, but also have fun! It may seem frivolous, but have fun! Use your vacation days. They are there. Work will always be there, but time will not. What memories are more fun, sitting behind a desk or kayaking down the creek?
Be a man or woman known as a good employee- reliable, trustworthy & diligent. Being a loving parent, a loyal friend and a person who knows how to relax and enjoy life.
That is my goal- to find the balance. I hope I can and I hope you can too.
