There can be so many demands on our time that we lose sight of the things we value most.
It's been happening to me more often lately... hard to reel in the time it seems...
And those demands? Most are so good. Family, Friends... A shoulder, a meal, a ride here, an evening out ,,,
But then some of those demands?? Some can squash the life right out of us...
Work loads, long hours, Snappy coworkers,
Clogged sinks, Colicky babies, Sick dogs.
Grocery shopping, Supper making, laundry sorting kinds of demands.
And those demands pale in comparison to the dictates of cancer... Cancer can make time disappear with an endless list.
Doctor appointments, medication pick-ups, chemo lab treatments, blood and x-ray work-ups, forcing the meals down, vomiting them up, ER visits, surgery schedules, bill paying, insurance arguing kinds of demands... and all the time we are waiting, and praying, and crying... watching the time slip away, helpless and angry and afraid.
This song. It stopped me in my tracks today. I needed to listen and be reminded.
Might you listen too, and be encouraged?? Just Breathe...
When our weary souls can take no more... He calls us to come and rest, in His presence the chaos stills...
and our hearts slow to the beat of Grace...
May you find Beauty in the stillness this night. Praying His Love over the fear and pleading for Strength to rest in that Love no matter how the storm rolls on...
Always,
Jane
