Last night we took Kylie to gymnastics for her second lesson. She enjoyed the first lesson but was a little scared here and there about what they asked her to do.
Last night she was really excited about going, but didn't really want to follow the instructions as much as she just wanted to run around and play. The only way we could keep her on track was to keep reminding her that if she paid attention and did what she was asked then she was going to get her hands stamped at the end.
It just made me think. How often do we have to be reminded about the "stamps" that God has offered us. I seem to forget so easily and get wrapped up in what I want to do, or stuck worrying about things that don't matter.
I think that for me, that that is why it is so important to spend time with God every day, and to try to be in constant communication with him, because, otherwise, we'll "fall off the balance beam" because we're busy looking at the rest of the gym.
