Some thoughts, lessons, and/or reflections from the day:

• I was awake far enough ahead of my alarm going off this morning that I was actually able to go back to sleep . . . and then took the longest time figuring out what the annoying buzzing sound was in my dream. 🙂
• With no fresh snow overnight, I had to scrape frost off my truck windows this morning.
• A foggy morning and a temperature below freezing made for some icy spots on the roads this morning.
• Not all dangerous situations are obvious, but the circumstances which create them often are.
• God desires that we seek, and use, wisdom that pays attention to the conditions which would bring danger into our life so that we’re not caught off guard.
• What we step in often follows us even in places we wish it didn’t.  (Thought while cleaning ice melt residue off tile floors.)
• I ordered more books to share with camp leaders at several different conferences over the next few months.
• Trusting God to provide can be difficult, but not trusting Him to provide is even more difficult.
• I spent some time refining the Growing Strong spiritual growth teaching concept to make it more available to places that would want to host it.
• Just because my implementation of an idea God puts in my mind doesn’t work, it doesn’t mean the idea is bad — perhaps I simply need to listen more clearly and figure out how and when God wants the idea implemented.
• The morning fog and haze never really did clear up during the day.  Even at mid-day, the sun trying to shine through the haze looked more like the moon than the sun.
• Today’s photo is of a woodpecker that I managed to catch a glimpse of.  No matter how my day goes, at least I’m not banging my head against a tree looking for something to eat. 🙂
