Like most of you (probably all, frankly), life has been a series of twists and turns.
With Labor Day weekend upon us, my mind drew a parallel between life’s twists and turns and those that come with a road trip during a long weekend. I’m visualizing great company, fun pit stops, convenience store snacks, an energetic sing-a-long to “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough,” and … perhaps a few tense conversations, some scary side roads off of the beaten path where you’re not totally confident you know where you’re going, flat tires, and heavy rain thwarting your adventures.
I oftentimes stand in awe of the wonder of God. He takes every last detail and creates beauty. When I think of beauty, I consider deep meaning – a richness of love and life that can only be experienced by fully living. We do this by gathering up both extremes – the magical and tragic experiences – and continuing to move through them by listening and learning with an intent to grow.
Of the list in the photo above, restores & loves resonates the most to me at this point in my life adventure. This is certainly not an inclusive list, but it’s powerful. What stands out to you? Please share!
Bold prayers for a wonderful week ahead my friends.
