Joyful Transformation

This morning I was listening to Luke’s account of Mary and Martha. I never fathomed that people would relate to Martha and be a little angry that Jesus would take Mary’s side until I got in a ladies class where I was younger than most. I probably struggle more with getting things done, that while they are not the BEST things, do have to be done. I took to heart the advice about dusty furniture and un-cleaned baseboards when my children were small. I know many of you are OCD about cleaning; I just didn’t get that gift, or curse or whatever.

Yesterday I got to keep Matthew for a couple of hours. He was so precious. I really wanted to take a nap. I still don’t know what is going on in my “Salty Piece of Land” book and I needed to study some for my lesson Wednesday. But I played with this little boy. I held him and showed him the dogs and read to him. Life doesn’t get much sweeter than this.
