a cracked slipper

"Know well the condition of your flocks, and give attention to your herds..."  Proverbs 27:23

Have you ever had an event perfectly planned, only to have it crumble apart at the last minute?  It happened recently with our fairy tale Cinderella celebration. Pouring rain cancelled the pumpkin patch activity, the costume was too itchy and after a long princess nap all felt drained.  


Accepting all these unplanned issues, was the key to a successful party.    A wise change of plans and expectations allowed the guest of honor to still have a fun celebration and her guests to relax and enjoy it with her.  She didn't know what she missed, and a wonderful time ensued for everyone.



Father, sometimes we have to let go of what we want and accept the circumstances at hand with grace and understanding.  When the glass slipper cracks, remind us the bedroom slipper can be a good and better fit.


we are loved and chosen by God,
may we live, love and do like we believe it,
veneal
