So, it hit me yesterday as I woke up early and started thinking about my FDLIC day, that in fact I wasn’t going to FDLIC. That was weird. Day 2 and It’s still not sinking in that I’m off of work for 29 more days! As I goggle the definition of Sabbatical, it’s a “break or change from a normal routine”. Well, so far I’ve done all the things I would normally do during a day (grocery shopped, cleaned, had quiet times with God, prayed, read, did non-profit work,…..) only it happened in a different order. BUT….God is so good to remind me that if I let HIM, my sabbatical can look very different than what I do on a daily basis. For instance, a friend asked me to coffee Monday morning. 3 hours later, I left refreshed and thanking God for that gift on a Monday…during the week….when I was suppose to be at work! And, today I get to play tennis….during the middle of the day…..unbelievable! In my talk with God this morning, it went something like this; “GOD, I’M SO GRATEFUL…….” and at the top of that list was “FOR A PERIOD OF TIME THAT I CAN GET AWAY FROM THE NORMAL ROUTINE”. It was quickly followed by; “CHANGE ME LORD TO LOOK MORE LIKE YOU!” Pray my anxiousness goes away because I feel like I’m still playing hooky (Hooky: Staying away from school or work without permission or explanation!)
