God's Will

A few weeks ago at church, our minister talked of "God's Will." He readily admitted that sometimes God's Will is hard to find, and can be equally difficult to understand, when you do find it. There was one message that struck a chord with me. He said you can tell you are doing God's will when you find you are immersed in doing things that you never imagined yourself doing, and doing them with joy.

Emerson and I invited my Dad (Papa to Emerson) to a Father's Day lunch last week. Dad asked me what I have been doing lately. I found myself describing my Vacation Bible School experience; planting flowers; readying for pending parties, reading a new book; working on a few home improvement projects; and of course, playing with and teaching Emerson. He looked up and smiled at me and said, "that's very domestic of you. "
A few years ago, no one who knows me would have described my daily routine as "domestic."
Who would of thought? And then I knew who...God.

Thanking God for knowing more than me, C
