"Don't live carelessly, unthinkingly. Make sure you understand what the Master wants." (Ephesians 5:17) MSG
Last week my family had the pleasure of traveling to Arkansas for one of my speaking engagements with Hopewell Ministries. We stayed with my friend, Sandra, and her family. Sandra took us by Gulpha Gorge in the Ouachita Mountains of Arkansas. It was beautiful. She packed us a picnic and instructed me to bring the boys' water shoes so they could play in the water. My youngest son Nathan was unsure of this at first. He just wasn't sure it was ok for him to play in the water when it wasn't even summer yet! I got so tickled at him. I cherish these moments. He questioned me several times to discern whether or not I approved of this activity. He even looked to me several times as he splashed and played for reassurance and approval. Nathan wanted to understand what I wanted him to do. We need to understand what the Master wants for our lives and just like Nathan we need to look to Him for reassurance and approval. . .look to him. . .He will cherish those moments!
