Little Scamper

I get carried away with CONCEPTS and ANALYSIS...instead of ENJOYING GOD Himself! If left to my natural temperament, I'd probably be making mental judgments all the time. I've had to catch myself during devotions I-don't-know-how-many-times THINKING about parallels, truths, and so on...and realize I'm not really worshipping God anymore, just thinking ABOUT Him. I often refer to myself "Miss Prone-to-wander".

It was a thrill when the pastor at church talked about the Good Shepherd looking out ESPECIALLY FOR THE LAMB THAT TENDED TO STRAY, sometimes even lovingly breaking its leg to keep it from scampering off on its own. (Hm; maybe God calls me "Little Scamper"!)
