Relax Is Not My Middle Name

 Like many of you I want to wake up claiming the truth. However, there are some weeks like this one where I have to ask God to remind me He has a purpose. I have to learn to trust him even when I say no to an opportunity that seem like an open door. I don't know about you but like many  of you I want to know God's will. Yet, it can feel so challenging especially when your trying to find the balance of being still.
I am still trying to understand this one. At the same time I know I have to be active which is some of the wisest words God allowed my friend Lesley to share with me which I'm very grateful for. I have also realized how easy it is to let life swallow you! I didn't really take off any time when I got of the plane from New York where I had been serving for a year with a church plant.
So, instead out of all this I let things snow ball. I was so anxious for survival thinking I have to get a job because I need a car, be the responsible adult and etc. I forgot to just (Be).  In fact  this week has really been the first time I feel I have done any debriefing. I'm still  trying to allow this space to happen. However,  I heard a song that may encourage us as we wait for whatever it is we may be waiting.  Hope it will shed some light for someone! What is your reflection? To slow down and be.
