For a couple of years, Mike and I participated in a CSA at the farmer’s market that allowed us to choose what we wanted from one farmer’s stall. This was great for us because we don’t eat everything that might be available. Like potatoes. We never ever eat potatoes. Mostly because they aren’t really all that good for you and we don’t need all that starch. While we aren’t participating in a CSA these days, we do still feel like we have gotten to know some of the vendors at the farmer’s market a little bit.

And yet there is redemption there, too, if I will allow God the space to move." Ditto! I have been reading your space here for a few weeks and this post resonated with me--I find it so comforting that God teaches us similar lessons in life. I have been dealing with this very issue myself (allowing God to use me in reaching out to others), and it seems that you and I have equally friendly husbands :). Its a great thing that God brings together two different people so that we can learn from one another, is it not? :) “I can be convinced that we should take care of the world that God created for us and forget completely about the people I also need to care for.

My husband is the kind to always talk to people and always build relationships. Just today he planned to go golfing with the Terminix guy who was at our house! I am so much more reserved and that is my comfort level but I do need to learn to be more open to people.
