Leave the Irreparable Past in His hands, and step out into the Irresistible Future with Him.
-- Oswald Chambers, My Utmost For His Highest
Just over an hour before my bedtime, and back to work tomorrow for a day. It's been a weird schedule these last two weeks with the holidays and scheduled days off. Everyone else is in bed right now, including my bride. Something knocked her down today big time -- not usual for her. She's better than she was earlier, but still not 100%. The girls, on the other hand, were energetic as they most often are.
A new year come, and 2009 in the books. (Except for tax time, that is...) The thought of a clean slate is very appealing to me right now. That and a desire to simplify on my part -- maybe a back to the basics. Go back to what matters. Ground myself in the Word. Tell others about Jesus. Be surrendered totally to Him. Get rid of the sludge, confess the sin, and leave what I can't do up to Him. Maybe nothing profound, but that is fine with me.
