I lose sight of this so often - I think that contributes to the discontent with the narrow path - I forget where it's leading.

I remember craving "wide open spaces" once...because I thought joy was to be found in taking steps in any direction that pleased me. Now, the older I get, the more I'm finding that the often treacherously narrow and challenging path of the Cross-centered life makes no allowance for distraction and wanderings...but can only be lived in-step with our Lord, one foot in front of the other. I'm glad you linked up, and encouraged us with this today.Ruth@GraceLacedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03573701899634024416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6815456190656965995.post-25004858855508609252011-12-12T00:18:25.969-08:002011-12-12T00:18:25.969-08:00yling -- I'll see you soon! the Lord disciplin...yling -- I'll see you soon! the Lord disciplines those he loves. *hug* we'll talk soon! love you.<br /><br />Olivia -- =) I did notice that there are a few mentions of liquids in this post: rain, apple cider, coffee, and yes, diarrhea. =)Irene Sunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14146448074068127644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6815456190656965995.post-2766498331316378422011-12-11T14:22:52.742-08:002011-12-11T14:22:52.742-08:00I had to smile after reading your title and the fi...I had to smile after reading your title and the first sentence :) But, once again, your writing brought me through another thought journey towards our DaddyOliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05617427971690629409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6815456190656965995.post-47617871457535800002011-12-10T23:34:28.314-08:002011-12-10T23:34:28.314-08:00hahaha, esther mentioned about being 22 too.hahaha, esther mentioned about being 22 too.Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01650769570230696012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6815456190656965995.post-34169896220188709532011-12-10T23:33:15.884-08:002011-12-10T23:33:15.884-08:00O_O 22 years old?! really?! i'm 22!!

Mentor ...LOL it was scary! in a very sweet way. =)<br /><br />Mentor sounded better than "disciple-er," which was what you asked me to be. Sister would have been more precise, but I was not sure how "professional" that would sound. =)<br /><br />I loved the exercise. Thanks for asking me to write your recommendation. It was such an honor.Irene Sunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14146448074068127644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6815456190656965995.post-7699733024342677452011-12-10T21:04:50.590-08:002011-12-10T21:04:50.590-08:00I'm 22.

On the safe, sure One that I can give myself wholly to, and take Him to be mine.<br /><br />Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.<br /><br />I smiled so wide when I read the first line of your letter: "I have been her mentor..." six! years! and four! And then joyous tears at the truly true paragraphs to follow. crazy years of my Father's great faithfulness to me.<br /><br />I called to Him from my narrow prison, you know... Not knowing where I was, thinking He was silent.<br /><br />He answered me in the freedom of space.<br /><br />He is so sweet to me. Those floodwaters are birthwaters indeed.E!https://www.blogger.com/profile/09424234314320958150noreply@blogger.com
