There is nothing like the innocence of a 7 year old to bring about the purity of children. Our youngest grandchild turned 7 yesterday and we had her birthday party here last night. Since Kathy’s day is just two days before hers, we combined the party for the two of them. Our youngest did steal the show however! She is full of life and innocence!

For quite sometime I’ve prayed for a second man to work with our counseling program. There have been those spoken with, but in each case, it became obvious there wasn’t a fit. Today our little counseling team is meeting with a gentleman that does seem to fit. I’m looking forward to seeing how the meeting goes. I know and believe that Jesus already has this in the palm of His hands. It will be nice to see how this all plays out.

There are days like today when all should seem well, but for some reason I’m anxious. I’ve already surrendered all of it to Jesus and journaled about it. I recognize my need to let it go just as I felt Christ telling me to do so and I have. The thoughts are still going through my head and each time they do I surrender all over again. Some days are just like that. I’m headed out to pick blackberries in a few minutes so I’m quite sure that will take care of any anxious moments!
