Glorying in God's Perfection

Glorying in God's Perfection

"If I live in a house of spotless beauty with everything in its place,

I am a housekeeper, not a homemaker.

If I only have time for waxing and polishing,

my children will learn of cleanliness, not godliness.

Love leaves the dust in search of a child's laugh.

Love smiles at the tiny fingerprints on the newly cleaned window.

Love wipes up the tears before it wipes up the spilled milk.

Love is the key that opens salvation's message to a child's heart.

Before I became a mother, I took glory in my house of perfection;

but now, I glory in God's perfection of my child."

What is it with job seekers who also write blogs? Our recent faculty search at Quaint Old College resulted in a number of bloggers among our semifinalists. Those candidates looked good enough on paper to merit a phone interview, after which they were still being seriously considered for an on-campus interview.

That's when the committee took a look at their online activity.

In some cases, a Google search of the candidate's name turned up his or her blog. Other candidates told us about their Web site, even making sure we had the URL so we wouldn't fail to find it. In one case, a candidate had mentioned it in the cover letter. We felt compelled to follow up in each of those instances, and it turned out to be every bit as eye-opening as a train wreck.
