History is a tree with many branches
Laid out by our Father for us to see
Just exactly where we stand,
Without being side-tracked
Or led astray on our way.
We should be meek as lambs,
Innocent and trusting as babes,
Basking in His love and grace,
No airs of arrogance, nor of dominance,
But full of humility;
No second-guessing, but accepting
His will for our lives.

How amazingly beautiful the world would become if only a tenth of its population became as you have described, Denise.
Thank you for a lovely word-picture

No second-guessing … should be Denise, but it puts a heavy load on human nature.

if we are honest that is one of the hardest things to really do…accepting his will over ours….its a daily discipline…

He has His plan for us all, and sometimes by looking at out own history, we can get a glimpse of just what it wasn’t.

One of my favorite sayings is: A wise man learns from his mistakes, but a truly wise man learns from the mistakes of others.
