What a day with a number of friends and family from across Lancaster County at the Reader's Jamboree, Dutch Wonderland! Before bed we opened the books again ;-)

Back to the Reflection Question, our family discussed it in the car en route to Dutch Wonderland. I highlighted hitting the wall, i.e., realizing the world didn't revolve around me and that I couldn't do it all (or anything for that matter, but particularly that which is holy) on my own. That happened my first year at Grove City College with chicken pox in Zerbe Health Center, but in some ways happens afresh day after day as I cast off more & more of the old self.  Note:  To read my spiritual autobiography visit here.

Then we discussed how we know what's righteous and what's sinful ... resting in the hands of the Father, study of the Word, & filling/direction of the Spirit which transform us into greater and greater Christ likeness as individuals and members of the Body of Christ.

We wrapped up by encouraging one-another to follow Christ during our time at Dutch Wonderland, to treat one-another as Christ would have us. As the kids chatted about other things, I silently prayed to the Father for us to evidence the fruit of the Spirit as the children of God in the park. The Spirit was evident & amazingly continued to be, even with the girls being wound up through dinner/evening. Praise God!

More coming. ...
