  • I finally sent off Anna's letter.  It ended up being about 10 pages in three different parts.  I said alot, and by the end of it, I felt at peace about it.  There were a couple of statements I made that seemed to jump off the page at me, so I wrot them down.

    "If I waited for the perfect to come along, I'd never be happy, and this would never get sent, so here I stand, I can do no other."

    "I'm confident that should we seek Him honestly, pray to Him boldly, and live for Him faithfully that we will end up exactly where we need to be.  It would be foolish to think otherwise."

    Those are pretty self-explanitory.  Again, I felt a peace after I'd written everything and read over it.  God is in control.  My ignorance, my selfishness, my short-sightedness, my fears, and my weaknesses aren't enough to hinder His plan.

    Today has been a full day.  Challenger Little League was supposed to happen this morning, but it got rained out.  The storm last night dumped a lot of rain last night, so even though it wasn't raining, it was still canceled.  That gave me a little more time to sleep, time to visit with James, and time to get prepared for this afternoon.  The 30-hour famine went well.  It was good to have someone else be in charge.  Now, should they do it next year, they have an idea of what it takes.  I wish more youth had shown up, but I'm thankful for those that did. 

    I have a final exam and a paper to do this week, then I'm done.  ...  I'm done.

    That's all...for now.
