Woke up to this view

 out the back deck this morning

but the longer I am up the clearer it is becoming.

Sort of how I am feeling about some things in my life.

I am finding (recognizing I am slow learner) that

as I have stepped back the last few week,

that sometimes

to

and 

and 

is the best way to 

figure out where I am going

and what I need to be doing.

This past week has been good for me as I work on a majorly long 

and to find 

between 

work

me

friends

relationships

time in the Word

that I don't have to do everything in one day

and that it is perfectly okay to 

and to 

and

Thank you Lord for this time this morning

to reflect on you

and that in all things

I need to give thanks

and be content

wherever I am

and to choose

to live in

so 

How will you choose to live today?
