A couple thoughts...
I've been thinking lately about how I am feeding my soul. When the days are long or when they're tough right out of the chute, what do I turn to, how do I feed my soul? When I receive the worst of news or I'm feeling a little lonely, do I reach for a Lindor truffle or the phone? Do I look for an encouraging e-mail/blog comment or maybe just a little "me time"? There are so many "good" things , but what is best? The answer is simple, but not always chosen... CHRIST ALONE! I don't want to feed my soul with fluff, or turn to anyone/anything, besides Christ! My mindset is transformed, I am renewed as I offer up my sacrifice of praise, rock out to worship music with the little nuts or meditae on His word. I will tell you this, He never disappoints me, He comes and feeds my soul!
Dig a Hole. Wisdom from Nanny. My mom shared this wisdom from Nanny with me when I was telling her about trying to keep up with our large garden and/or not getting some leftovers used up. She said sometimes you just have to dig a hole to keep peace. Isn't this so true? You can apply this philosophy to forgiveness and so many other things in life, don't beat yourself up, move on, and Dig a Hole! :)
I plan to be back soon with pictures and a bunch of other "miscellaneous"!

ReplyDeleteIs it wrong to say Y-O-U feel my soul too!?! :)
The timing and content of this post was uncanny.
I love-love your wisdom and your "real-ness", and hearing tidbits from sweet Nanny always warms my heart, what a blessing.
You have no idea how this touched my heart today...I will work to draw from this...
I love you so much Rachel-you are so special to me...
