I am the quintessential starter of a million projects and ideals. I'm always in 4 books at a time. I'm always finding a new plan to follow...it's exhausting. :-)
Last night, after conversing with dear Cheyenne on FB about a new plan I want to follow for the next 30 days, I laid in bed reminding myself of all the parenting books I needed to read...all the exercise I needed to perform...and all the plans I needed to follow...
Then I asked God..."Where am I? What do I need to focus on?"
I thought back over my week...
Three conversations...deep conversations...with friends that were raw...intimate...an unveiling...
Hard conversations for both parties but necessary for openness and growth...
I don't need more plans. I need to relax in Him and learn to listen and trust. Bottom Line (Danny).
Bottom Line.
I am such a butterfly...full of flight and wonderment...that I fly in conversations and life...
I love this about myself but it can get me into trouble...
So...I'm taking the next leg of the journey to sit back...say less...listen more...and learn from others...
I wish I had more to give you today...but it's where I am...growth...and acceptance that I need to expand my silence sometimes rather than my flight...
Grace n Peace,

You spoke to my core on this one. I feel that all of my 'doing' is making a royal mess out of things. I feel a call to 'rest'. I must heed. Thanks, again, friend.
ReplyDeleteOh Amanda...I am in the same boat! I haven't even gotten SG's 2nd grade curriculum out of the box because I'm still having doubts about homeschooling with so much up in the air right now. You're not alone!
