The Humbling Process of Learning Something New!

When have you ever wished that you didn't have to learn something new (like Blogging, snowboarding, submitting to a particular authority figure, or budgeting!), because it was too hard and, thus, humbling?

Human Frailty

My online dictionary describes human frailty as this:

weaknessfallibility, flawimperfectiondefectfailingfaultshortcomingdeficiencyinadequacylimitation, weak point

ANTONYMS strength

Why is this a good thing (at times) in God's plan for your life? I sure could use your encouragement; I've been experiencing a lot of human frailty in this season of my life!

Blessings,

Quick, Funny Stories of How God Decided to Shape Your Character

Hi ~

Shelley and I have been greatly blessed by all the incredible postings and emails we have received about how Character Makeover has changed your life. Thank you, Jesus, and thank you for letting us and others be encouraged by your blogging! As a quick way for others to get a taste of the book, we'd like to have you share here: "Quick, Funny Stories of How God Decided to Shape Your Character"!

For example, today I had a half dozen major projects to finish, but at 8am, my little neighbor-girl rang my doorbell and asked if I could help her register for junior high, because her mom doesn't speak English. I saw God's hand in the request, so off we went for several hours with her mom and newborn baby sister to get her registered. It was an extreme test of patience for me as a Type A personality, but I believe with all my heart that it was God shaping me today -- and it will always be one of my favorite memories! [Tonight, we go buy school supplies!]

What about you? When/how has our Creator worked on you?

Blessings,
Katieb
