What's Wrong

What's wrong with this picture? If you look carefully you will see that on the bottom row is a huge pile of clothes packed on top of itself. That is not a a good way to dry my clothes.

Our granddaughter was "helping" me and packed lots of clothing on top of its self. She was so proud of what she had done. I smiled, knowing later I would need to rehang my clothing. But I was glad to do that. Just having her so happy and feeling so worthwhile gave me joy.

I believe God honors our attempts also to do his work. Sometimes we blow it. I remember when I first became a Christian. I made many mistakes with my faith. I still make mistakes, but God did not nor does he now, give up on my efforts. I believe he smiles also when we are trying to live for him. The works we do are not the important things, it is our attitude. When we try and "help" God maybe we goof things up. But our willingness must please God's heart. Because he is all about relationship, and our wanting to be with him must cheer him.

Today, reach out to God. He is not interested in what you are doing as much as why. If it is to be in relationship to him; he smiles. He loves being with us.
