As my sabbatical draws to a close, I am overwhelmed with gratitude for this incredible experience. I can’t explain how perfect the timing of everything was. The Lord sure knew what He was doing to line everything up like He did. I ended my sabbatical with a last minute trip to DFW and one last time of play. Exploring, eating, movie, shopping, even stopping in a pet store to love on some puppies. It was whimsical and adventurous.
During my time off I read the book “Jesus>Religion: Why he is so much better than trying harder, doing more, and being good enough.” It really challenged me to think about choosing Jesus and relationship versus just having a religion and doing things for the purpose of checking boxes or following rules. I really loved how it solidified several things the Lord and I have been talking about over the last several months. I challenge you to read it also, especially if his resonates with you.
Now that I am fully rested I am ready to get back to work and allow others the opportunity to do the same. My mind has already begun to wonder about what awaits me at the office, but I’m sure it is all manageable because of the capable hands in which I left things. I’ll conclude by sharing a photo of the latest puppy addition to my family, Molly.
