Ministry is an eternal business, no room for error. Constant attention and bringing your best required. Believe me, that doesn't mean I don't make tons of mistakes!
Today I was reminded outside the complexity of people and eternal decisions I relish simplicity. In fact I long for it.
This morning was simple and I feel more fulfilled than important things have made me feel recently.
I walked dogs.
Did laundry.
Hung clothes out to dry.Put a roast in the oven to slowly cook all day.
Filled bird feeders.
Swept the deck.
Prepared potatoes to be added later.
Got ironing done and put away.
Re-arranged some things that have been annoying me.
Washed a few outside windows that have been sporting cobwebs for quite some time.
I hope it means my head and heart are in the right place when I can take so much satisfaction from regular stuff.
It is in simplicity that I found focus on thankfulness for God's provision and blessings this morning. And I get to stay there the rest of today!
