As you may have noticed I truly do stink at keeping this thing updated....I try...I do, and yet somehow life seems to just get too busy.
Life is too busy for blogging, for dishes, for laundry, for painting my nails.... In fact, an exact conversation I had with my beloved this evening went a little something like this.
Me-"ugh! I didn't get anything I wanted to accomplish done today"
Him-"like what?"
Me-"my nails"
Bah! True story....and I don't even know why I was "busy".
Do you ever stop for just a second to wonder what keeps you so busy? I know sparing a second could quite possibly through your entire day into turmoil but seriously....
As a mother of two young boys I find myself saying that so often, "I'm busy".
But the truth of the matter most days, and especially lately, it's not so much a physical busy as it is another kind of busy.
I love that verse that talks about "be still and know that I am God"......KNOW...it is so much deeper than you tend to grasp when you skip over it in Sunday school "because they always say that kind of stuff".
It's a tangible, up close and personal, in your face, kind of knowing. And the only way you get there....is by being still. Physically yes, but when was the last time we allowed not only our bodies but our minds and hearts to be still? Not the cliche take a moment and just focus on what The Lord would have you do....but a stop everything, hold the phone, let me focus (girl! Get on up in that prayer closet), kind of being still!
