Perhaps it’s because it’s such a beautiful day – sunny, low humidity, pleasant temperatures – that I was so looking forward to a morning walk.
And then it hit me: the woods!!! I haven’t been there yet in this busy week, and only did a drive-thru last week because of the rain, clouds, heat and humidity. But today… it would be perfect!
Of course, I had other things planned for this day – did I mention that it’s been a busy week? - but not till the afternoon, leaving the morning free.
Funny that today’s “theme” in my journal is “make time”. Was there ever a more clear command? I could do it – just a quick drive out there, walk, and back in time for the other engagements. This is the most beautiful season for the woods, I love it the best and simply can’t let the busyness of summer prevent me from enjoying, engaging in, even bathing in what my soul needs so much more than the other things slated for this day. I must make time for what I need the most!
So off I go… with gratitude for the gift of the urging in my spirit, and the time today to indulge it. I’m grateful, God!
“This is the day which the Lord hath made. I will rejoice and be glad in it.”
(Psalm 118:24)
