Enjoying some love from an incredible 2 1/2 year old. He stole my heart.
I had a small melt down last night. My camera disappeared last weekend during a tumultuous event I'll share soon. I was so bummed as I had planned to share all of this. After much soul searching, it occured to me that I had completely missed the message the Lord was sending me. Clearly I was to be with him in the moment and mission without the trappings of technology. First, cell phone died. Second, camera disappeared. It's amazing how we set forth with our own plans even in the context of God's call.
Dinner is on...gotta go...
Indeed, Jenny, I think you're right. I use my camera all the time to stay in the background, to find peace when there is chaos around. (think 4-year old birthday parties!) But, not having it pushes you into being present each moment - really experiencing everything. The people around you will experience so much more of you as well. Much love!! Kristen
ReplyDeleteYour mind works in wondrous ways, beloved Dr. J -- but that's the ancient virtue of making lemonade from the lemons that show up! Way to go.
