I wanted to blog this on Sunday when my devotional for the day had a quote by C.S.Lewis. He said,
"There are 2 kinds of people in the world. Those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, 'all right then, have it your way.'"

It tickled me. I know both kinds of people. I've been both kinds of people. But what tickled me is that C.S. Lewis said it. This deeply spiritual, deep thinking, brilliant, literary scholar voiced this absolutely profound truth in such a simple, clever, entertaining way. That's what tickled me.

And because I've tried both ways, I know the first way always turns out better. ;-)

Totally unrelated, but do we need a picture? Oh yes, I hear my friend Beth saying, Oh yes. Two really attractive girls. One daughter-in-law and one to be. The birthday girl is showing off a brand new birthday scarf.













And one little birthday boy in big cowboy hat.

I really like the C.S. Lewis quote; it speaks to me as well.
