Inventory

So the first Monday of the month (today) is the day that the Women’s Center places their inventory order. I looked high, I looked low, and there was no inventory record to be found.

After a few short Q & A sessions I discovered that no inventory record was done. Everyone was simply so busy that there was no time to get the inventory request together. There's just one small problem - without a record of the current inventory, we won’t know what to order – we won’t know what is needed.

I thought about that for a while and realized that in my own life there are times that I need to slow down and take inventory, personal inventory. I need to evaluate: where I am, what I am involved in and what I have stored (hung on to). This will help me to know: where I am going, what I am producing and what I need to get rid of.

Hmmm…


Holy Spirit,
Thanks for preaching me straight to my knees! You have a way of using the commonplace things in my life to keep me in line. You’re awesome!


Sincerely,
Liz

Not many would have approached Jesus to ask for such accountability. Whether this leader asked to receive kudos, or if he asked because he could sense he was missing something, when Jesus pointed out what he could do he left sorrowful. Perhaps his desire to protect and shield himself through his wealth was overwhelmingly important. Understandable, right? Whatever the case, this leader walked away in sorrow instead of surrender. Isn't it something how badly the truth can cause us to employ various defenses? We ...

Lets Do Life Together

The need for connection and relationship cannot be ignored or your 'forever' will suffer. Even this temporal life cannot be  done well on one's own.  We need one another.  We need community. Please remember, you are needed.  You are so very loved.
