They've gone from preachin' to meddlin' now! ;-D And I like to be right. :-/ <sigh>  Yep, this one is a toe-stepper for me, I'm afraid.
And honestly, who likes to be wrong? We all like to be right, but it takes maturity and humility to admit when we're wrong and allow ourselves to learn from others.

It really is ok to be wrong, and folks will (mostly) respect us more when we can say it and step aside for someone else to be right. <sigh> ugh.

Suck it up (she says to herself) and humble yourself.  After all, our model is the one who humbled himself to the point of death on the cross.  If he can go that far, we can at the very least admit when we need to learn from someone else and step aside from time to time.

<ugh!>
Ok, here goes...

Change my heart, O God! May I be (more) like you.  Please Lord, may it be so.

    I'm a wife, mom, pastor, human...probably not in that order.  I struggle each day to be faithful to God, to my family and to my call as  a Christian and all of those previously-mentioned roles.  I pray to be positive, kind and thoughtful, but tend to fall short on all counts.  I am inspired by sunrises and enjoy taking pictures (mostly my kids, deer in the yard and sunrises).  I waste time playing stupid computer games and wishing I'd been better at all of the aforementioned roles. ;-)
