It is the day before Mother’s Day. I will attend a huge family reunion tomorrow. We have to bring a dish. This will sound petty to most who read this. My hands do not follow small motor directions from my brain. The family loves my Spring salad, and I will make it. This salad will take all day to make. because of the handicap. I will love my family well by the effort it takes to make their favorite dish. As I type my comments, it takes much effort with hands that will not work. I am loving those who read this, for it is my gift to them. Please Lord forgive me for wanting more than you have given me. In Jesus name, Amen.
