I have been running around like a chicken with it's head cut off. I am coaching Lydia's soccer team, Jacob just finished playing Rugby, and Jed and Sye are playing baseball. I am still in the YM presidency, I have started a small business, still working a full time job that has me running all over the place, still working for Robert on the side, and now it is getting into the summer and I have been farming. Actually, the farming has been more fixing and trying to find newer equipment than anything. It is good to be busy!
I had a couple of neat experiences with promptings of the Spirit last week. One of them had to do with dad's baler of all things. I was repairing the baler and had a small bolt that was broken. It is a special bolt and the Deere place was closed. I drilled the broken piece out and was just going to head to town to try and find a bolt when I got the impression to look in the junk drawer in my tool box. I almost dismissed the idea, but decided a quick look wouldn't hurt. I opened the drawer and brushed the stuff aside and right there was one of the tiny little bolts that I needed. It was like finding the needle in the hay stack. These promptings come all the time, what I realized was that a lot of the time we don't listen. There has been many times that I just brush the ideas off as crazy. My experiences this last week made me realize that I need to take a minute and listen more often, I get ideas like this all the time. The trick is to act upon them when they come.
Well, it is time to go to soccer practice, so I better run!
