1st note of interest

The first note of interest on my "complaining fast" would be this:
I literally had to tell myself to be quiet in my mind tonight at church.
(This had nothing to do with our pastor---just my wandering, complaining mind!) No wonder the Bible says, "that the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart."
It just makes you wonder how much goes through my mind without ever catching myself at it!

Ok, I have to be honest. I've never seen you as a complainer. You must complain in your head a lot, because I've never felt like you were that negative. Just had to throw that out there!

Did you manipulate her into saying that??
HA! Just kidding!!

I agree w/ Lindsey - I've never thought of you as a complainer, more of an encourager.

I was thinking of Phil. 4:8. I think a lot (most?) spiritual battles begin in our minds!

By the way...Benjamin was looking over my shoulder when I read this and he wanted to know where he was in the picture. ROFL!!

Poor Benjamin! He just doesn't get that he's not one of my grandkids. I guess we just need to make him official!
