Stories from my friends that are moms

I loving hearing stories from my friends that are moms. What God shows them through their kids can be so real and so funny and so true. One of those friends is my friend Courtney from college who has posted another two blog posts that have really made me think today. Please read them because I think you will also get a lot out of them.

1. This one is about how many times you actually hear "MERRY CHRISTMAS" rather than "HAPPY HOLIDAYS!" I hope you say "MERRY CHRISTMAS" to everyone you meet this season.

2. This one is about how we want to put our spin on God's plan for our life: a little sweet, a little spice, a little color, etc. I try to do this all the time and I've just got to stop it. Many times, I want what I want because I think I know what's best for me and not ask God what His plan is for me. He sees the BIG picture and knows what's best for me in the long run and I need to always listen to Him and do what he says. Take a read.
