So I heard this story on the radio the other day.
A girl asked her mom for a quarter to buy lemonade from a stand down the street. Thinking she was generous, the mother reached deep into her pocket and handed her daughter a dollar bill. The little girl was very frustrated and loudly exclaimed, "Mom, I don't want THAT! I WANT a QUARTER!"
Wow. I wonder how often I have, how often do I continue to ask God for something, expecting, whining even, longing so desperately, and He's like, "Katherine, if you only understood. What I am offering is so much better than what you think you want."
Father, teach me to trust You.
May I strive to view my life and my world the way You do.
