Contemplation....


Some days I find myself contemplating the future.  At this time, mine is pretty simple and uncomplicated. It hasn't always been that way.  My caregiving days were anything but!  I was caught in schedules, unanswered questions, new challenges... they filled every day. 

Sitting beside the Gulf of Mexico is one of  the pleasures of my life.   Kamri was taking advantage of the beach at Corpus Christi a few years ago and her expression caught what I wanted to convey today.

If you are in the center of a difficult life experience, I encourage you to find a few minutes and sit down, take stock and contemplate. You will be surprised at how 5 minutes of concentrated thought will help you see more clearly the direction you need to pursue. 

Psalms 78:7 in the New Living Translation states: "So each generation should set its hope anew on God, not forgetting his glorious miracles and obeying his commands." 

Revisit your hope.  Ask God for His presence in your struggle today and then look for Him as He guides your steps and makes the rough places smooth.
