Bonnie,
I am crazy about this post. It never ceases to amaze me how our young’uns can be a fountain of knowledge (and they don’t even know it!)

My favorite part was this: “It’s hard to be patient, when I don’t know how long a dream will take. But, the end will come faster, if I focus on what God’s put in front of me, trusting in what my Heavenly Daddy can do.”

Lately, this is EXACTLY what Daddy has been trying to get through to my thick noggin. So glad I could have this reminder from your sweet baby!

@Michelle: Yea – a dreaming compadre!
@Lisa notes: It’s so simple, I forgot it and then, happily I remembered it.

Nice reminder. Do what the Father tells you to do. Thanks! It's timeless advice. .-= Lisa notes...´s last blog ..Is this heaven or hell? =-.

Oh Bonnie, I love this! I’m so glad you shared it on Walk with Him Wed., because I missed it yesterday at Bridget’s One Word Carnival. You DO have a way with words. This is my favorite graph:

“I’m so totally used to working to pop dreams out of the can of self-effort. I try to force my dreams, getting short and frustrated, artificially trying to make things happen. It doesn’t taste so good.”

Yes! That speaks right into my heart and soul! Me, too!

I LOVE the 3 who’s here — esp the last — who you want the final product to reflect (as opp. to what). What a unique gift that you’re bringing to the Father through your art. I pray a special blessing in thanking God for your words, Rich!

It seems God has placed 4 year old to bring us the joy of patience. We are listening. “Heartache and repentence” – what a beautiful and true duality in our journey. Thank you!

A wonderful story. I’m working on a piece of writing that’s taking longer than I want–you just reminded me of who’s in charge, who’s providing the words, and who I want the final product to reflect.

I don’t want this to be instant lemonade. Thanks for the reminder.
