It’s easy for me to run to a book or other distraction (or food) for comfort when stressed, but that never lasts. The times I’ve felt most refreshed is when I am surrendering that stress and overwhelm to Him and seeking Him to fill me with his presence. Taking walks with my son in the stroller around our neighborhood park’s trail without bringing headphones for music or an audiobook has been one way I’ve been creating space for solitude with Him. I use that time to pray and to praise him for his creation, I pay more attention to the birdsong and budding flowers and mention them to my baby so we can share that experience. It’s helped me slow down and worship him in the middle of a busy day

We can trust his heart to always be enough.” Yes! Thanks for reminding of this truth.

Thankfully, by the time my first became a teen, I’d found the grace to fill my cup, With some of the hurdles we’ve had with our daughter the past couple of years, I’ve said over & over that if I’d still been operating from that place of deficit & deprivation, it’d have been a MUCH different picture around here. Thanks, Melissa!
