The Better Part: those inchy ladybugs

those inchy ladybugs

Today Andrew and I were playing a fun game he has made up with flashcards that have pictures of animals on them and numbers to learn how to count. Anyway, one of the numbers had pictures of lady bugs on it...a whole bunch of lady bugs. So, when Andrew turned it over and saw all those lady bugs he scrunched up his nose and said, "Ooooo I don't like those inchy lady bugs! Put them in the garbage can!" (We just checked out Eric Carle's The Grouchy Lady Bug from the library. He really didn't like that grouchy bug.)

Wonder how he'd feel about a cock roach?

and this is my blog, The Better Part!

I’m looking for encouragement everyday. I think we all are! So here’s my offering to you: encouragement in wholeheartedly pursuing your unique calling and purpose that comes out of a vibrant relationship with Jesus. Women who are loving others out of this kind of life in Christ are changing the world! Sharing our stories connects us. That connection is like deep calling to deep and iron sharpening iron.

So many of us miss opportunities to extend the love of Christ by missing moments of our ordinary days that are the real and better part. Jesus encourages us to forget about fussing over things that do not matter and take hold of what cannot be taken away, and that thing that cannot be taken is a vibrant, thriving, authentic life in Him. So let’s live fully alive and purposed in all of life!

Luke 10:41,42 "...you’re fussing far too much and getting yourself worked up over nothing. One thing only is essential, and Mary has chosen it—it’s the main course, and won’t be taken from her.”
