Trying to find a simpler & more soulful way...

Wendy, thanks for the tip! As suggested, Shauna Niequist’s ‘Present over Perfect’ was just waiting for me to pluck it from our little church library. I think she & I were designed the same! Can one actually learn to leave behind frantic for a simpler, more soulful way of living?

Today I read further into the book (thinking it was written especially for me) & the quote, by Eugene Peterson, really hit home. Busyness is an illness of the spirit. 

So family...here is my attempt to make wiser choices with the time we have. Time to write a bit about our days so we can look back & be reminded of the many gifts life holds. May we always be thankful & able to experience Joy! It’s there for the taking 💗
