I feel like I have embraced Rest and fought against the temptation of Rest in many ways... but apparently my impatience still tries to boss me around sometimes! lol! But wisdom isn't Shouty... and He is consistent in whispering truth in a way that forces me to slow!~Karrilee~ from Abiding Love, Abounding Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06698176066735604032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24687432.post-5488435501887159762018-09-02T11:23:10.608-07:002018-09-02T11:23:10.608-07:00It's so vital, isn't it?

It is such a human inclination to want to rush transitions, and I definitely understand it. Yet, I do try to look around at my blessings and remember all the good that is in this very moment.Teresahttp://www.biblejournalingjourney.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24687432.post-50878333760936009862018-09-01T03:18:57.922-07:002018-09-01T03:18:57.922-07:00Waiting is so outside of our western culture. Rush...Waiting is so outside of our western culture. Rush has taken over. My friend who oversees a ministry in NEPAL (he and wife are tentmakes in VIrginia) sent me a photo this week. A woman, probably in her 30's, looks like she's 93, is bent over on a rocky mountain path with a baby in her papoose, a toddler skipping along at her side and a week's worth of green leaves and branches on her back. I asked Ken what the plants were for? To feed her goat. There was no rush. No wait. She was simply doing her next thing.
