In Hot Pursuit???

Here’s the reality : We are all pursuing something.

And unfortunately, for me, the “what” I’m pursuing changes from day to day, maybe even hour to hour and minute to minute.

First thing in the morning, my pursuit is coffee – a hot, heavily sweetened portion of heaven in a mug. By 4:00pm – it may be obedience from my children, some glimpse of sanity amongst the chaos or the vain pursuit of a nap.

Each day we wake up looking for something. It could be happiness, success, financial security, model children, the perfect marriage, an immaculate house, acceptance…the list could go on and on. And all of these pursuits will leave us exhausted, discouraged and wanting for MORE!

Or – we could choose a higher pursuit. We could choose to wake up with our hearts set on a HOT pursuit of Jesus. We could seek his face in the grocery check out line, his voice in our few brief moments without noise, his presence while doing the dishes….

It truly is an amazing life we could live….ORDINARY MOMS chasing after an EXTRAORDINARY GOD!!!

Let’s journey this thing out together!

It’s my hope that this blog will enable us to stay a little bit more connected – to encourage one another, share prayer requests, give MAC announcements, and more. So, become a friend, leave a comment and check in periodically.

Until next time – please continue to pray for Kori, John and Smith Bailey. Kori had a rough night last night but is still holding in there. She’s 23 weeks today – we need to pray her to 24 weeks!! Thanks friends!!
