Once again this week I've found some treasures of wisdom from the devotional book I am using, "My Utmost for His Highest" by Oswald Chambers:
"It is ingrained in us that we have to do exceptional things for God--but we do not. We have to be exceptional in the ordinary things of life, and holy on the ordinary streets, among ordinary people--and this is not learned in five minutes"
My lesson plan for the day included spending time with Grace, Mabel and Louise. It takes a sacrifice of my time to visit with these dear elderly women, yet I find my life is the richer because of it. So thankful today for the freedom of retirement to work on being holy on the ordinary streets of Crosby, ND!
