Of course some­one else is going to step up and lead. What does it make a dif­fer­ence if some­one else leads, they still know that you are going to study and talk and be there. Might as well just lead it! If they were lis­ten­ing to God, they would encour­age you to get your stuff right with your fam­ily and come back and lead.

I am look­ing for­ward to swing­ing into base­ball sea­son. It is always a lot of fun to see the smiles on all the boys faces. I espe­cially like grab­bing my cam­era and try­ing to get the per­fect shot. Although I rarely do…the hunt is still fun. I am amazed at my sons drive, when they set their mind to do some­thing, noth­ing stops them. I remem­ber in vol­ley­ball, I would do the bare min­i­mum just to be on the team, but when some­one says you should do pushups every night to Kyle, he does them every night. If some­one wasn’t watch­ing me, I wasn’t doing them. They are teach­ing me a les­son every­day. It is impor­tant to do things even when no one is notic­ing. To expand your mind, extend your capa­bil­i­ties and live each day in prayer and to your fullest! Don’t look for the easy way out! It’s not that easy!
