Start, Pause, Stop, Go.... Be Flexible

Image
Flexibility n. the quality of bending easily without breaking, the ability to be easily modified, willingness to change or compromise.  Look here, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we are going to a certain town and we will stay there a year. We will do business there and make a profit." How do you know what your life will be like tomorrow? Your life is like a morning fog -it's here a little while, then it's gone. What you ought to say is, "If the Lord wants us to, we will live and do this or that." James 4:13-15   God has been teaching us much over the last year in St Kitts. Among things like humility, patience, self-control, and kindness-even-when-we-are-super-stressed-out, one of the biggest things we have been learning is flexibility. We can't enter the prison today even though we showed up on time, in dress code, with my own TV monitor and computer and prepared a lesson? Flexibility. Dinner party and the electricity goes out? Flexibility.
