So, I guess this post is more about me than Addi-Sorry!
A friend of Matt's Grandma gave us a wonderful gift for Addi when she was born. A Childrens Bible with 365 stories, one for each day of the year. Everyday before Addi's nap, I have been trying to read a couple of stories to her. Knowing when I started this, that she was too young to understand the meaning of the words. What I wasn't expecting was to learn a lot about myself and the bible. I am finding out that I didn't know very much at all about what was in the Bible. How sad is it of me that I thought I had pretty good grip on things?!?! I mean, I had read the bible some of what I didn't really have a firm grasp on but I thought I understood well enough. I have been so interested to learn more that I think I have left Addi out of a few stories. I guess I just feel bad that it took a Childrens Bible to break it down for me to be able to understand. Then it makes me wonder what I am missing that isn't in the Childrens Bible. It has made me reflect and think about the things that I have done. Not all of which have been good memories.
For those that I have been selfish, mean spirited, hard hearted, controling, unwilling to help, unthoughtful, pushed you aside to get what I wanted..... I am truly sorry from the bottom of my heart. Please forgive me.
The neat thing is that I can pin point many, many times that God had his loving hands wrapped around me and my family.
