We've moved!  It's here and it always felt so far off...
We're on the tail end of the higher hectic stress of it, albeit stress still looms...
Though I feel there are one million things to do, what matters is the walk down the path that He has uniquely for each.
This morning I'm compelled to share a paragraph from Streams in the Desert that is so beautiful, calm and simple...the opposite of how I feel when I am in the midst of trouble.  God, grant me the calm and my eyes on You to remember and practice this:
Yes, there are many crosses, and every one of them is heavy and painful.  And it is unlikely that I would seek out even one of them on my own.  Yet Jesus is never as near to me as when I lift my cross, lay it submissively on my shoulder, and welcome it with a patient and uncomplaining spirit.
Huh, whoa, yaaaaa...much needed reminder and lesson.  Can I learn it?  IIIIII hope so.  xoxo, hh
