What a day…actually what an evening! Jill & McKayla are in Centralia, Hannah went to Sesser for something, and I am here with you know who…both of them! I know there is nothing like quality time with my girls, but remember, too much of a good thing is still too much! Well, we got most of the homework done…took a trunk load of recyclables to Olney and rewarded ourselves with supper out. Once back home we played till dark, took our showers, and just retreated to bed to read before it’s time for lights out. I mention this because this too is life in the Spirit. As I understand God’s will for my life, I am a pastor, but more important a father and husband. Even more important than that, I am a child of God. All of these relationships are important, as are many others, and they are all important to God! In fact, all of my relationships are interrelated. My relationship with God is influenced and enhanced by all of my other relationships and all of my other relationships are influenced by my relationship with God. So then, life in the Spirit is lived at church, at home, at work, when I play, recycle, do homework, and pray. Speaking of which, I gotta go…it’s time for prayers.

I'm so glad you demonstrated that life in the Spirit is involved in all aspects of ones life. Too many times, it seems people try to put on the appropriate 'hat' for the occassion - you know, the 'mom/dad' hat or the 'church' hat or the 'work' hat. Shouldn't our lives (if we are living in the Spirit) just have one 'hat'?
ps Hannah was a BIG help!!
