Sometimes that is difficult to do. <br />One of my very best friends and her family are right in the heart of the wildfires. Her mom doesn't know if her home is still standing because they were forced to evacuate. I'm praying for them and for all.

Some day, we will. I just have to look at Mr. Methuselah.<br /><br />Such a testimony to being grounded in the good soil of the Lord's mighty power. With His Spirit, we can adapt to anything.<br /><br />I am not a good person with *change* - and yet, God seems to do His best work when I am a little off-kilter. I think that's because I lean on Him more when I'm tottering!<br /><br />GOD BLESS!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00840994989201507494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-292398111323195424.post-74196810112255766442011-09-08T11:08:31.656-07:002011-09-08T11:08:31.656-07:00Very interesting post!Very interesting post!Suzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07650696130681003892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-292398111323195424.post-1276998583775159892011-09-08T06:35:14.056-07:002011-09-08T06:35:14.056-07:00That is a perfect message for me this morning.

I do not adapt well, and I definitely do not adapt silently. <br />I need to take the lesson from the Methuselah tree.
