First week away….

Well, it’s officially been a week since I’ve gone on a hiatus from Facebook.  I will have to admit it’s been a lot more difficult than the first several times I did it.  I’ve also found that I mainly use both my personal computer and phone for accessing social media and therefore don’t use them nearly as much.

I do miss the people I used to interact with on a nearly daily basis.  The pictures that I used to share on social media still get posted on WordPress, but not nearly the same as getting lots of “likes” and comments that the book would afford.

I have done a whole lot more reading and writing and I think that’s a good thing.  In addition, I’ve started on a more disciplined regimen of devotionals, which I had gotten away from in recent years.

I finally received a call-back about a part-time job I had applied for over a month ago.  Turns out it’s down to between one other person and I,,,,I should find out tomorrow whether or not I got the job.  Then I’ll be able to share exactly what the job entails.  I realized that would be more fulfilling to do with a larger audience, but a hiatus is a hiatus…..lol

Seven days down and thirty-nine more to go – I got this.

Deep Freeze…

 

#26 – DEEP FREEZE

“EVERYTHING HAS ITS SEASON. NOW IS THE TIME TO PUT ACTIVITY ON HOLD WHILE YOU REST.”

UPRIGHT

The cold winter beckons you to slow down and put a “freeze” on things that are not yet ready to bloom. It’s time for regeneration and hibernation. Forgo ambitious activity. A “pregnant pause” al- lows ideas to gestate; projects to shift and change; and relationships to go through a dreamy state of being, not going any- where—not needing to. This is also a time to put all your arguments on ice. Nothing beneficial will come from any of them. Self-care is the most important activity now . . . so reflect, read a good book, or get a massage. Rest and dream.

Nobody Knows…

 

Nobody Knows…. lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don’t know where I belong
No I don’t know
But I’ve been hanging on
For too long
‘Cause no one really knows me, at all
I’ve been spending time
‘Cause time’s on my side
And if I make it home
When our worlds collide
‘Cause no one really knows me, at all

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
I don’t know where I belong
No I don’t know
But I’ve been hanging on
For too long
‘Cause no one really knows me, at all
So help me find my way
The way I came from
‘Cause I’m feeling lost and afraid
You better not be too far gone
Oh, have I been so wrong
Missed the song
Still I don’t know where I belong
No I don’t know
Because no one really knows me, at all
Yeah, no one really knows me, at all

Faith in the Present Tense…

 

rose-631950

From this morning’s devotional reading:

I read this morning that when Jesus encountered the disciples on their walk to Emmaus, they spoke of their faith in the past tense: “We trusted.” (Luke 24:21)  Jesus responded to them, “O fools, and slow of heart to believe.”

Let us never put our faith, as these disciples did, in the past tense – “We trusted.”  But let us ever say, “I am trusting.”

The Song of a Bird in a Winter Storm

The soft, sweet summer was warm and glowing,

Bright were the blossoms on every bough:

I trusted Him when the roses were blooming;

I trust Him now….

Small were my faith should it weakly falter

Now that the roses have ceased to blow;

Frail were the trust that now should alter,

Doubting His love when storm clouds grow.
