Accountability

A few days, weeks ago I requested some guidance via my pastor about my "life's work". That's a very dramatic way of suggesting that I feel I could, should and can be doing more in my service to others but need a bit of instruction on how to accomplish this.  I've had what I can head-thinks where it felt like God tapped my head and said listen to this.  I'm quite nervous of this next step in my life because I'm stepping out in faith and will attempt to follow where He was wants me to go.  I hope we both (pastor and I ) can see a more clear path for me. I've not dealt closely with my pastor before. I'll probably cry so I'll warn him first it could happen!

I think you need to be accountable in relationships too. Blueman and I have talked about my word choices and he has agreed to draw them to my attention in a constructive way and I have agreed to accept it without snarling and drawing blood.  I think my attitude and word choice will affect the maternal unit's vocabulary as well or at least I'm hoping it will.

Yesterday I was under the impression that lunch was to be with the girls and so I left Blueman behind. Lo and behold my sister brought her cash cow to the meal. She deliberately wrote everything in singular, I'm dressing, I've got a booth... Blueman felt excluded and snubbed and now I feel like I've got to do something about this.  Either clarify the players before, confront selfish sibling, or simply reject the invitation.

Speaking of Blueman, I must say he is doing so well. We've had some great moments and not so stellar ones in healthcare recently and some have been pushing him appropriately while others are pushing buttons. He has risen to the occasion by doing what he must for the betterment of his well being. I couldn't be more pleased.

Such deep thoughts on this Palm Sunday.
This is the day that the Lord has made let us rejoice and be glad in it.
