As we were sitting in church Sunday with a number of distractions running through our heads. Upcoming orders, our workshop build, how we are supposed to balance everything???? All of the sudden the message became about having a case of the "IF ONLY". If only we had a different this, or a different that. Sound familiar? It does for us! Ausden Inc has a beautiful way of putting life in perspective. On Sunday we had a real family "Moment" where Mommy dropped a hot pan of lasagna on the floor in the middle of the kitchen only to wave a white flag of surrender while Daddy was left with two hungry little boys and a broken down wife sitting on a bench in the backyard. It wasn't about the lasagna. It was about the defeat. To try so hard to always get it right, to be left with a huge burn hazard mess on the floor. At that moment I thought about how hard God works and feels defeated as we constantly try and take matters into our own hands, yet he never gives up fighting for our hearts. Ausden Inc helps us see the world through HIS eyes...God's perspective.

It's hard when we try to be the pillars of strength that we see ourselves as and want to be then something insignificant (while seemingly important) tears us down. Just remember that the pillars in Athens and Greece may have chips and cracks but they are still standing strong and tall. Stronger still over tIme! I missed being there last Sunday. I could use a little perspective myself! I heard the guest was great! Xoxo! See you soon.
