Sometimes I feel so driven by time. My to-do-list feels like the groceries on the conveyor belt at the grocery store. And the belt doesn't stop and the boxes, and bags pile up and up; tumbling all over each other. None of them really going anywhere. And I believe I will never get them all done.
But I decided, as i pondered this picture in my head, I need to stop the conveyor belt (my mind). And not think I have to do them all at once. They are only stressful as I THINK about all of them. They can all sit on the belt quietly waiting their turn. (like good little groceries...:)

Just couldn't resist another picture of Sierra. God has given her the gift of joy!! I miss her.

Had an AMAZING week. Had a blast at Mivoden just talking with some special people. Had some quiet time each day by the river. God teaches me so much when I sit there. Got in a cleaning craving and cleaned the pantry, bathroom cupboards, closet drawers...etc. It feels good to go in to get something and find such organization! Had a great meeting with some WWVA student leaders. WOW, I was impressed with their splendid ideas, passion for giving to others, creativity, and ability to create new ideas, videos so quickly. It was fun!
I've been pondering this quote:
You literally choose by the way you attend to things, what sort of world you live in.(or think you live in.)
So I chose; by how i think, decide to do or not do (or say) something, the peace or misery I live in.
Have a peaceful Sabbath..enjoy the gift.
