Seeking to Remember...

...this:

“The great thing, if one can, is to stop regarding all the unpleasant things as interruptions of one’s ‘own,’ or ‘real’ life. The truth is of course that what one calls the interruptions are precisely one’s real life—the life God is sending one day by day; what one calls one’s ‘real life’ is a phantom of one’s own imagination. This at least is what I see at moments of insight: but it’s hard to remember it all the time.” -C. S. Lewis

Oh God, give me patience for the interruptions!

This is one of my FAVORITE quotes! Learn it by heart, now, dear one. Remember that you are not your own. Thankfully, you were bought with a price...and you can give your life away, one interruption at a time - to the glory of God.

Love you,
Mama
