I’ve been jotting ideas recently, extra certain to capture the creativity while it’s colorfully etched into my mind. (Habakkuk 2:2)

A few weeks back an idea came to me that was immediately followed by a sense of urgency. I mentioned it to my mother, and without serious thought had developed an action plan to get her on board (Proverbs 16:9)

She was an easy sell, which definitely doesn’t come as a surprise, but she advised that if I am serious about making my idea a reality I needed to call my uncle. (Proverbs 19:20)

He listened to my spiel and asked two questions, why now and what’s your motivation. (Proverbs 18:2) After listening to my response he provided verbal approval and offered his knowledge and expertise to make it happen.

As I’ve said, this took place a few weeks back. While the onset was swift it now feels as if motion has stalled. Cynicism has started to occupy space and defeat seems far more likely than success – but I’m not waving the white flag just yet. (Psalms 37:7)

As a child I spent almost every Sunday in the sanctuary. Most sermons didn’t keep my interest and if it weren’t for my church friends I’m certain I would have gone into a full tantrum so that I could be excused. As an adult I can easily recall sermon scriptures from my youth and apply them to current situations.

Sidenote: place your child in the midst of The Word and it will seep in, but that’s a thought for another day!

Anyway, this is an Isaiah 54:17 situation; therefore, you’ll find me comfortably sitting the waiting room. (Psalms 27:14)
