2 face plants & 10 gallons of lake water

Ok, so I'm usually pretty natural at most sports...not being egotistical, just the truth! I have no room to be over confident after bouncing a particularly large check the my hiney couldn't cash-I found my "waterloo". For Dad's Day my fam headed out to the lake to chill with mom's clan and the friendly neighborhood Doc was going to take us girls out to wake board. Well, I've never tried before, and being the athlete that I thought I was-I was determined to try it and be good at it on the first try. After watching my cousin get up easily and make wake boarding look like a joke, I was prepared to get up on the first try and start jumping waves. I found out pretty quick that God has a great since of humor when it comes to pride. Two face plants, an all natural enema and the consumption of 10 gallons of lake water later I could no longer feel my ankles, so I decided that I had learned enough for the day and that I would wait until the lake was a little less choppy before I tried again. So, God taught me a little lesson in pride today. I was humbled greatly, especially in the several moments when I thought I might drown. Other than that I would have to say this was a fantastic Father's Day b/c my family came to church with me this morning. That's been my prayer for SO long now and it really made my century for my parents to be able to see just why I am so on fire for God. This fire isn't going out either! Look out Anderson, the youth group is back in town and we are fired up and ready to serve our Lord! On that note, I'm out like Baal after God lit Elijah's sacrifice! (1 Kings 18-19)
