Slow

This morning I had a moment...

The kind where you realize you are overwhelmed...

Too many emotions, too many thoughts.

Stop, Courtney...take a breath.

As I lay in bed contemplating when I would actually decide to push myself up and out,

I started to pray and reflect about why I am overwhelmed.

And I decided to change my heart, shift my attitude.

Life is busy...it will always be.

I don't want to spend time worrying and fretting about something that can't change...won't change.

So, today...I am taking a break. 

Choosing to remember that I am where I ought to be.

Even when it doesn't look like I think it should.

I am choosing to live in the Joy of my Savior.

I am choosing to believe in the life My God has for me.

In the promises He has spoken over me.

In the Love He has shown me.

I am choosing to enjoy the people around me.

To love them, to cherish them and bless them.

Today is a good day...because I choose for it to be. :)

I am listening to this beautiful song by Audrey Assad this morning.

The lyrics and melody are so sweet, so beautiful.

 I hope you listen and reflect on the words, and the truth they hold.

and I hope that you enjoy today...because you can. :)

Because God is moving and He is moving you...

even when you don't feel it.
