Weekend Reading Materials

Most people don't blog on the weekends, which leaves me with two days of nothing new to read about other than the news on MSN (speaking of that, I have developed an unhealthy obsession with the Malaysia Air flight 370 news).  Anyway, in light of that, I decided to share a few weekend reads with you....just some of the posts or stories I've read this week that I found interesting.  Enjoy.

1.  This blog talks about a time when the author was asked to make a sacrifice to help others because that is what Jesus would have done.  I love the whole message, every word.  The fact that it involves shoes (which we all know I love) makes it even better.

2.  This blog where a girl talks about her need to have everything be neat and organized and how maybe she should just let life be messy.  Maybe we try so hard to keep our houses and offices clean and neat because we think that if they are not a mess, or life cannot be a mess.  And maybe we should just let go and enjoy the fact that messy can sometimes be good.  If you're Type-A like me, you probably need to read this one.

3.  This post that talks about how maybe when we claim to be "waiting on God" we really need to get a move on.  I think that generally I'm not too bad about this one (The Boy from Texas might disagree beings that we still live 9 hours apart!), but I know a lot of people in my life who really struggle with this and sort of end up stuck in a rut because of it.  I think sometimes we  use "waiting on God" as a bit of an excuse when we are scared to make a move.  Maybe, in truth, He is waiting on us!
