Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the desert and streams in the wasteland. Isaiah 43:18-19
A few posts back, I had photographed a bowl of cherries.
I don' t know what the deal is with me and cherries these days. I usually don't eat cherries because of the pits, and cherries are okay, but not my favorite fruit. But for some reason, I've been eating cherries lately.
And then today I took it a step further and decided to make a cherry cobbler. Now I've made cherry cobbler before, but that was using canned pie filling mix. Today I pitted 4 cups of cherries. It took a while because I don't have one of those gadgets to pit them with. I'm still debating if I'm going to bake the cobbler tonight or just wait til tomorrow.
Hmm, maybe these new things are a reminder to me to do as the scripture above says--don't dwell on the past and look forward to the new thing God is doing in my life. I like how in the scripture God declares he is making a way in the desert. Yeah!
My friend, JoJo Tabares, the communication expert, has posted a challenge on her blog to describe yourself in three words. Threeeee words, Let's see . Creative, compassionate... I need another one. I'm going to ask the spouse to describe me. This will be interesting...
Hmmm.. I just ate a bunch of cherries, but I'm afraid the only way I know how to pit them is to...EAT THEM! lol I love cherries.
ReplyDeleteYou are definitely Creative and compassionate! I'd say you were also professional, caring, faith-filled, helpful and, lately, BUSY!
The pictures are awesome! It's funny what you wrote on going through the desert experiences and trusitng God. Just before I read your email I wrote down," To relax,let go and let God direct and lead me.
