What a great post. I really appreciated your perspective on this. A dear friend and I were just talking about this very thing yesterday, the way that what we DO speaks so much more to our kids than what we SAY to do. It feels like a lot of pressure, but at the same time, in a strange way, it brings great relief. I can’t always be talking talking talking, I need to simply live in love.

I’ll stop rambling now…So nice to “meet” you!

“Why is it that when we’re asked to be obedient, our first inclination is to run the other way?”

Let me know when you figure that one out…

Because seriously…I HATE being told what to do. Unless, of course, I want to do it. Yes, I’m 3 years old.

Just a few of us briefly bantered on Twitter today about it. I thought we could discuss it next week after everyone has a chance to catch their breath from this one. Maybe we could do one the following week if people are up for it…we can talk word/theme. Let me know your thoughts! You did an awesome job…Ring Leader!

I think that’s exactly why obedience is so hard sometimes – because it takes us out of our comfort level. I really, really struggle with that. Which just might be why God keeps giving me more and more of it.
