Isn’t blogging a wonderful way to capture our thoughts? I’m like you, Laura—one reason I blog is to capture my experiences for myself and then hopefully they can bless at least one other person. But even if they don’t, our time with God is valuable no matter what. Thanks for sharing.

You are SO right… God’s time to whisper in our ear is often so that we can share that truth. For me, I think that’s why I blog and write Bible Devos. I have a memory like a sieve, so I journal what I believe God is speaking to me through His Word and then many times end up writing about it in a post. It’s such a blessing to then hear how HIS words have touched other hearts through my feeble interpretation… my time with Him is never. ever wasted. Thanks for this… Blessings to you!

Thank you, Anita. My daughter emailed more pictures yesterday of the place where she’s staying and of the view in Guatemala. Oh my! Wish I were there with her. But for now, God has me tilling the ground back home. 🙂

Good point, Jen—we often do let guilt kick down doors into rooms it has no business being in….

Thanks for your encouraging words, Becky. Yes, God is beyond our comprehension in the way he weaves people and events in and around our lives, blessing us at just the right times in just the right ways!

That’s beautiful, Alecia. God can redeem our past and use it not only for our good, but for the good of our children too. Your daughter is blessed to have your honesty and your love to guide her.

I never thought about how others benefit from me spending time with God (other than the obvious–I’m a much nicer person when I spend time in His presence). I’m so glad your daughter made it safely and may she have a wonderful time while there!

The purpose of guilt is to convict and yet so much of our guilt has nothing to do with doing something actually wrong. And of course I am in full support of us sharing our revelations with our families and communities!!

So gracious to give us exactly we we need when we need it. Loved reading this sweet story. And that nugget about time spent alone with God not being selfish? Yep, I needed that. Always a joy to be your neighbor at #TellHisStory.

Lately God has been showing me how I can use my past to help my daughter navigate through her teen years. I use wisdom and discretion, of course, but the lessons I’ve learned can hopefully help her.
