Reading this story, I can't help think how wrong he is. We do feel good when we help people, but only because in doing so we are drawing closer to the heart of God who loved us first. Even if we do feel good because of this, we help people because God helped us first.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15022048060665077252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371485872569943380.post-50073192578082428072012-09-03T22:12:14.539-07:002012-09-03T22:12:14.539-07:00Thanks for sharing, Kendra.

I love that you are talking about it as a "missionary" here in the states, cause we often think of missionaries only as "over there" in another country or something. But what makes us missionaries anyway? Is it raising support? lol. <br /><br />I just ponder because I know I consider us more in that category, too. But I wish more people saw themselves in that light and wonder sometimes how ministry might have looked different for me at times if I'd considered myself that way before. I think in our situation we are set up better for success when I remember to think more as a missionary and less as a "church planter" or "pastor." Can't wait to see how God uses this next season in your guys' lives. (And hope we get to experience it with you at a much closer distance before too long, also!)bobbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05273151407624675507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371485872569943380.post-65767369239779057492012-05-05T09:33:48.215-07:002012-05-05T09:33:48.215-07:00I love your blog!!!!!!

I have lost track of how many times I have called poison control and she can open "child-proof" lids easier then I can. Thanks, it is a good lesson to remember for our harder kids. I have often said I may have thought myself the perfect parent were it not for Ayla. She certainly makes life interesting!SBethuelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04633845310037191104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371485872569943380.post-42544311406218159982010-11-03T12:57:03.559-07:002010-11-03T12:57:03.559-07:00You WILL change the world through your two girls p...You WILL change the world through your two girls perhaps more than any other way.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00112878899734826123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371485872569943380.post-76616891495218763012010-10-24T17:14:24.836-07:002010-10-24T17:14:24.836-07:00Remind me to read this if I ever have the privileg...Remind me to read this if I ever have the privilege to be a stay at home Mom and start complaining about the house work. Right now house cleaning is kind of nobody's job since we both work. It just doesn't get done and nobody complains about it...LOL! Ok, disclaimer: the dishes and the kitchen usually are cleaned up daily. Everything else rarely gets done. Although now with a crawling baby I have caught myself and Andrew vacuuming and sweeping more often. Yay!

I did such a good job with it when I first went back to work, but I struggle when I come home from work and have to spend a significant part of my evening cooking dinner, and getting ready for the next day. Until Dan is done with his thesis, I'm not sure anything can change. But all that to say...you're not alone in this struggle! :) Maybe we should have a virtual housework accountability group!! :)Klappyannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01516485435321657606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1371485872569943380.post-71995832949619508502010-10-20T20:20:57.162-07:002010-10-20T20:20:57.162-07:00Oh, my goodness, Kendra - this is SO my problem!
