The word "no" is a powerful, wonderful word. Why? Because it means "yes" to so many other things.
Here are some no's that I am thankful for (some I had to say, and some that were said to me):
- No from a school in Mexico where I wanted to teach English. Yes to one more in year in Charlotte, teaching, coaching, and serving.
- No to a roommate. Yes to my niece and nephew who came to stay with me some last summer.
- No to a busy schedule. Yes to space for deeper friendships with fewer people.
- No to my plans and "building my own house." Yes to the Lord's plans and seeing what HE can do.
- No to worry. Yes to rest!!
