New Book

It's a new year and a new book. I'm excited about this one as it sums up my goals for this year: "The Discipline of Grace" by Jerry Bridges. I actually did this study years ago in church Sunday school but as is typical of my post-children brain, I don't remember much of it. Yesterday when we met we decided to just focus on prayer instead of discussing the book and praise God, we were able to pray. The kids were running around the house playing and yelling but that didn't stop us. Each of us had a turn to pray and no children were injured during that time and the house wasn't set on fire. I am thankful indeed:) I'm hopeful this sets the tone for our small group this year that despite what is happening in the lives with our kids, we won't let it distract us from focusing on Him.
