I feel like my life is in perpetual flux, moving to new places, traveling to new lands.

Laying down some rights
Today i lay down some rights.
To be needed or liked or accepted. Today I lay down the idea that I am owed something for the life i lead, that somehow God owes me certain things.
This is not my life anymore.

How timely your words are for me today. I have an idol that I haven't yet sacrificed -- owning my own home. And I have believed that God owed it to me b/c I gave up everything for His call to return to my husband's home. But, just as you said, it is not my life anymore. I am rooted to Him; I am but a branch on His vine. I love you, sister. So grateful for your site and your wonderful words.
A'ndrea - i am so excited you are blogging love - now we can see even more into each other's lives even though we are miles apart. tonight i saw the greatest fireworks show ever and at Dupont Circle i danced to a band playing called the Lively Stones. It was an amazing night.
