Learning . . . Learning . . . Learning . . .


  • Learning to let go of things that I have no right to act like I do have a right to.
  • Learning to spend a lot of time on a bike and in the pool.
  • Learning more and more every day that I have a lot to learn.
  • Learning to listen more and talk less.
  • Learning that God can be trusted in all things.
  • Learning that same God will allow me to put myself in tough places in order to realize He can be trusted and I can be a knucklehead.
  • Learning that some things that used to be so important are not quite as important as before.
  • Learning that some things that I thought were unimportant earlier in life are more important than first believed.
  • Learning that people matter most to God.
  • Learning that I talk about being open to change more than I am really open to change.
  • Learning that I am blessed with an amazing wife.
  • Learning that our daughters and son-in-law are great treasures that God allows me to help steward.
  • Learning from K5 kids at church too many things to even mention here.
  • Learning from college aged students that God has His hand on them in some incredible ways.
  • Learning that I do not have to agree with all the ins and outs of every situation to be supportive.
  • Learning that I can push myself when I determine to do it.
  • Learning that sugar is a drug and these past few weeks without it have been healthier for me.
  • Learning I can live without frozen yogurt and whip cream (the whip cream deal is huge!).
There are many more things I am learning but in each one of the statements above, there are many things going unsaid that God is teaching me. I am blessed, thankful and learning to learn again.
