Nice slow morning. Coffee on the deck. I headed to garden to harvest flowers for CSA. Denny headed to the basement to shampoo carpets. About 11 I picked up the Grands and we went to aronia berries at Olde Town. then to the grocery store. Back home Missy fixed good chicken sandwiches. then we picked cherry tomatoes. About 4 Missy had Nakasawa kids over for Slip and Slide. I watched kids and picked off basil leaves while Missy made pesto. We came home for bed. Denny kept cleaning and putting back furniture.
Summary of the book I read this weekend. John Ortberg "Soul Keeping."
Keeper of the stream story. Allegory that we are the Keepers of our soul. You must ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your life. Page 20 Dallas Willard was the same visiting with famous or janitors. Impatience, worry not part of his life. Inner life at peace with the life everyone else sees. page 38
Example of practicing the discipline of not having to have the last word.
The most important thing in your life, is not what you do, but it's who you become. That's what you take into eternity. You are an unceasing spiritual being with an eternal destiny in God's great universe. page 23 What matters not is the accomplishments that you achieve, but the person you become. Slow unglamorous building of character... in me and my job. page 67
Dallas Willard ... Creative moments bring us joy. God was joyful during creation of the world.
