And it is really frustrating when things don't go the way I want them to be. But then I am only human and there are events that are definitely beyond my control, and I guess this is where God steps in. :-)Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10328342211129410370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3400602384806002775.post-82911651006741716982011-08-16T10:23:49.394-07:002011-08-16T10:23:49.394-07:00Lover of details?

We are reading Luci Shaw's book, Breath for the Bones, and this week she talks about paying attention to the little things; about how that is close to God's heart. Of course, we can take anything to the extreme, but isn't it just like our Good God to show me these two sides of the same thing today? <br /><br />Really enjoyed this post. :)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08263995875732832349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3400602384806002775.post-55331058916575482852011-08-15T18:49:30.815-07:002011-08-15T18:49:30.815-07:00Oh yes, the details!

I have one daughter who is just like me, and another daughter who is the opposite. <br /><br />My husband is the opposite too, which makes it hard when I have to depend on him for certain things. ha.
