There are times when I just don’t like who I am. This is one of those times. For us to be gone for two weeks in the prime of spring weighs on me like I would never have thought. I hate admitting this, but it is true. I keep being reminded that I am to do what I am to do and then let TRUST fill in the two week gap. I have a grandson who is very capable of taking care of things staying right here. In fact, he is coming today so I can walk him through the chores. He is even excited to do this. I just haven’t ever turned this amount of time over to someone else this time of year and I have never wanted to do this either. Yet, the reason for it far outweighs this angst I have.

I was reminded this morning of the 3-R’s: recognize, reject and replace this angst with truth. My grandson is very capable and wants to do this. I actually need to experience this so I practice the trust I talk to others about. God is faithful and doesn’t want me living in this doubt. So, in this confession, I place my trust that all will be well when we return on May 8. If for some reason it is not just as I would have had it, it would take just a couple of days to get things caught up. I write this and realize once again how human I am. But, God loves me anyway and I’m so grateful for Him!
