Great idea

I received a letter in the mail today. First, I got excited that I got mail- you know, other than a bill. So I started to read it and after a few minutes, I realized it was from myself!! Yes, a letter I wrote to myself about a month ago. I have done this a few times, and each time I read the letter, I had forgotten I had ever wrote it. About a month ago, at 747- our college service- we had an all worship night. Brian had set up stations around the room for various forms of worship- prayer, scripture reading, confession, communion, and one was for writing letters to yourself. We addressed the envelope to us and then wrote just a little something that we wanted to work on this year so that when we received it, we'd be reminded of our goals. It's always an encouragement to see words from yourself. So it was good for me to read- three things out of many that I told myself, were: Serve your husband, smile at your daughter, and spend lots of time with the Lord. Not that I don't do those things, but sometimes you need to be reminded.
