“People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone.”

Walk, don't Run

“It is always the simple things that change our lives. And these things never happen when you are looking for them to happen. Life will reveal answers at the pace life wishes to do so. You feel like running, but life is on a stroll. This is how God does things.”
[Donald Miller]

Take the time to enjoy the things life has to offer. Don't try to rush things that don't need to be rushed. As Courtney always tells me; "God has his own timeline." His timeline is way more important than our own. When we work within our own timeline, we become unsatisfied with some of the end results. But if we are receptive to what God is wanting to do in our lives, and we follow after HIS timeline, we will be satisfied with the outcomes. God wants his children to be happy, and though we grow and learn from the mistakes we make, sometimes it's just better to go along for the ride. God has our best interest in mind, and I have come to know that He will never lead any of us astray.

"Those who know your name will trust in you, for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you."
[Psalm 9:10]
