My flight leaves at the stroke of midnight. It isn’t an airplane ride I am taking, but it’s my flight in life. I am leaving a place of Mediocre so I can travel to a place of Promise.
Hesitantly, I stand at the Gate, nervous about what is ahead, but eager to see more of Him revealed in my sphere. I hand my Boarding Pass to the Flight Attendant (aka the Holy Spirit), not sure what kind of ride this will be, but certain, I am in Good Hands.
Day 1 – It is January 1, 2018 and my day begins early…. It’s 2 a.m. and dark outside. As I sit in my prayer chair in the living room journaling, I remind myself, you will not rush through life this New Year!
The year 2017 was brutal for me. Although I started a new job, got a new look, and made a few great strides in my spiritual walk, it was a different kind of season for me. I am thankful for everything that happened in 2017, but grateful 2018 is here!
Perhaps I am the only one who does this, but every week day, I find myself moving fast: I rush to get dressed, run out the door to get to work, hurry to my desk to begin the projects and tasks I have assigned for the day, only to eagerly watch the clock move till it’s lunch time, and then I command my computer clock to tick tock to the hour for the work day to end.
CAUTION!!!! You may want to get out my way, because in a flash, I will quickly push pass my co-workers, so I can jet to my truck–destination home!
Why do we rush through our day like this? Don’t we understand we are speeding through our lives, often too fast to notice the beauty all around us?
Daily Reflections: SLOW DOWN and enjoy what unfolds before you THIS DAY!!! If you don’t, you may not hear a warning, not heed needed instructions, overlook something lost or miss Someone important…
“Listen carefully, I am about to do a new thing, now it will spring forth; Will you not be aware of it? I will even put a road in the middle of nowhere, and water in dry places. Will you not see it?” Paraphrased from Isaiah 43:19 (MSG).
