1 Corinthians 3:4-9

"For when one says, "I follow Paul," and another, "I follow Apollos," are you not mere men?

What, after all, is Apollos? And what is Paul? Only servants, through whom you came to believe—as the Lord has assigned to each his task. I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. The man who plants and the man who waters have one purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor. For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building."

Multitudes on Monday

My heart is full this morning. Full of the joy that only comes from my Savior. Knowing that His mercies are new every morning. Knowing his love is not dependant upon mine for Him. Knowing that no matter how much I love, His is so much more. Knowing He has a plan and it is perfect and mine is not. Knowing all this, trusting it, believing it, and becoming free of all the worry, guilt, stress...brings joy that fills me today.

On this journey of counting blessings, gifts in each day, the small stuff and the big stuff; my heart becomes less and less full of the yuck and the muck, and fuller- joyful, hopefully more like His.

Brooke, contentment – that I have. Peace I have so long as I continue to want our Lord's will above my own. The Christian joy that comes from knowing this life means something – and will not and – that I have too. I have a life that hasn't had much of the "only" joy – so I am double grateful for having the joy that comes from above.

And I look at your list – because I love picking out a favorite – and it's this one – feeding hungry kids. I picked it because blogging in this community have come to know a world full of great moms – so I know how much it means to a mom to make a meal and have the kids gobble it up. So this one made me smile the most. God bless you and all of yours this day Brooke.
