For whom?

I really like this commercial and when I saw it the other night I was reminded of the scripture in Galatians that says, "Do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? for if I still pleased men I would not be a servant of Christ."

It's great not to "ride" for the critics it's how we're supposed to "ride". So hard to ignore their voices, though. It's probably one of my bigger battles that I have victory over at times, but then fail in at others. I want to stop caring what others think of me and truly pursue the truth unfettered by others voices. I have a long way to go, glad this got me thinking about it again

Two Hours

I have not forgotten my blog. I have not found the evils of blogging and decided that it shouldn't be done. I have not forgotten how to spell. I have, however, found that that when I blog that it takes a lot of time. I have decided that those two hours that I have after the kids go to bed should be used in building my marriage and honing the craft that I believe that God has gifted me to do. I have decided that I will continue to blog, but after a bit of a break that it will be shorter thoughts and that if I have something bigger to write about that takes more space and time that I will wait and put it down here at a time when I really "have time" to do it. So, after a break of several weeks, I'm back.
