In which we chronicle our attempt to become Southerners, parents, and more like Christ. But not in that order.

Loving my enemies.
Today I startled to realize that as much as I wish I hadn't taken this job (and I mean that- regret is looming large right now in my life), that its really taught me what "love your enemies" means. Loving my enemies isn't so much joyfully getting up and going to work so a child can fight me over using a fork and spoon, as it is being burdened for the life that people live without Christ. Much of my irritation has been displaced by the deep need I see in people for Christ. It's sad- without Him its just survival. Thats not really life.
