We are satisfied by our decent little life. We are pleased with our good habits; we take them for virtues. We are pleased with our little efforts; we take them for progress. We are proud of our activities; they make us think we are giving ourselves. We are impressed by our influence; we imagine that it will transform lives. We are are proud of what we give, though it hides what we withhold -- Michel Quoist
Navigating a life for Christ
I stumble ALOT.
My life verse is Psalms 37:23-24 "If the Lord delights in a man's way, He makes his steps firm. Though he stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with His hand.
It helps to know God can use fools like me.

OXford
I sat across the table at the Noodle bar in Oxford, smiling at Peter and Christopher sharing a large bowl of chicken noodle, eating very deftly with chopsticks. We don't eat out much at all - maybe once every 4 - 6 months here. It is a big splurge as resturants are very hard on our budget, but this is a special occasion. Josh's girlfriend from Korea is here and this is her last day with us as she is going to visit friends in both Oxford and London for the remainder of her time in the UK. She spent nine months studying in Oxford last year and wanted to show us this city. We had never been here and we love it. It is an amazing city, with beautiful building and all sorts of interesting shops and people. I love walking through the colleges of Oxford University. This is definately a place we will visit again.
