July has been a very busy month for us, especially since it has not
rained in a month. Many of the things we have done have been “firsts” for Ella. It has been fun to watch her as she experiences these things for the first time. Some of things she was a little apprehensive but has grown to love , like her car seat. She cried the whole way home from the airport her first ride in the car seat. But now she absolutely loves “Ella’s car seat”. Many times God wants us to do things for the first time for Him and we kick and scream and want to do things that we are more comfortable doing. But in the end God knows the future and He knows what’s best. So as we do it God’s way we learn that God’s way is the best way because it’s the right way and we don’t have to be afraid.
“We never have to be afraid to do what is right.”
-Cousin Mordecai to Esther in Veggie Tales
