Thinking I'm Teaching, But Instead Being Taught!!
Last week, my 13 year old daughter, Abby needed to serve someone. She wasn't exactly excited about it. She had other plans for the day. I talked (okay, maybe more like preached) to her about how she had to have a good attitude. Christ came to serve, not to be served, and I went on and on. About 15 minutes later, I received a call asking me to help someone. This was not my plan! I also had other plans for my day!!
I realized that whole conversation was not for Abby, but for me!!! Well, I have to confess, I struggled most of the day with having a servant's heart!
Being taught isn't always easy!

You are right--being taught is not a lot of fun!
Thank you for today! We enjoyed the visit so very much. I think what God is teaching me is to be consistent so I can joyfully invite others over. Also I need to be willing to serve others in my home even if they are not my very good friends that I could talk to all day long without taking breath!
Love ya!
