I read a quote this morning that said, "Feeling overwhelmed isn't surprising. Being surprised about it is." Well hallelujah! It feels nice to have someone honor my daily feelings of being overwhelmed. I think somewhere, I got this crazy idea in my head that I was supposed to be in control of my life. You might also suffer from this delusional line of thinking. As Christians, we profess to have Jesus control our lives, but that doesn't stop us from wanting to be a prime adviser as to how that should look and feel. My prayer for today is to stop futilely grasping for control, and allow God - my Creator, Savior and Sustainer to take the reigns of my life. Surely He can do a better job! :)Koinonia is a Greek term that means communion and fellowship - especially that amazing togetherness found within the gathered community of Christ. My goal is to offer another opportunity, within this blog, for the people of God to meet, talk, and grow together.

Overwhelmed....as always!
