Good morning. I am so tired this morning and I'm not sure why. It really took me until about now to fully wake up this morning. Coffee just didn't do the trick this morning.

Last night I got groceries and got home around 6:30 and then was off to play some tennis. We didn't even eat dinner until 9!!! I know, I hate eating that late too, goes straight to the hips, but nothing I could do about it last night.

We play Faith today and wouldn't you know we will be missing our top scorer. He is out for 7 days with a concussion from a game last Wednesday. Funny thing is he played on Saturday and seemed to be fine. hhmmm... anyway. It's supposed to rain off and on all day, but so far it's only been misting. Hopefully the games don't get rained out. I'm leaving at 3:00 to catch at least some of the girls game. I will let you all know how it goes.

Here is what I'm thinking of today. (It's kind of long, but well worth the read)
"If I am to be like Him, then God in His grace must do it, and the sooner I come to recognize it the sooner I will be delivered from another form of bondage. Throw down every endeavor and say, I cannot do it, the more I try the farther I get from His likeness. What shall I do? Ah, the Holy Spirit says, You cannot do it; just withdraw; come out of it. You have been in the arena, you have been endeavoring, you are a failure, come out and sit down, and as you sit there behold Him, look at Him. Don't try to be like Him, just look at Him. Just be occupied with Him. Forget about trying to be like Him. Instead of letting that fill our heart and mind, let Him fill it. Just behold Him, look upon Him through the Word. Come to the Word for one purpose and that is to meet the Lord. Not to get your mid crammed full of things about the sacred Word, but come to it to meet the Lord. Make it to be a medium, not of Biblical scholarship, but of fellowship with Christ. Behold the Lord." - Norman Dowdy
