It is definitely not a coincidence that on the first day of my 30 sabbatical, when I read my daily devotional, it said, “I WANT YOU TO BE ALL MINE, filled with the Light of My Presence. As tears flow, I had a huge struggle, initially, with whether or not I could walk away from my families, who depend on me each day, for a full 30 days. Now I can breathe easily, knowing that I needed this time away. God knew that I haven’t been taking time to focus on Him with the busy life I am living. Wow, I am still overwhelmed by not knowing what the next 30 days will hold for me. I am going to trust that the Lord will guide me and use me during this time, to serve others and renew my soul.
My second highlight of this morning was being able to sit under the pergola, to drink my morning cup of coffee and enjoy God’s creations on our 3 acre property. This is something I haven’t been able to do, since recently moving in. Excited for what God has planned for me over the coming month…..
