Gone sideways and deliciously cool….
That describes tonite during my evening stroll which does wonders for my psyche after dinner. That quiet just calms me at the same time, gets my muscles moving and my heart rate slightly elevated yet, it clears my mind.
I have to let things go. I dont know if I let things or people get to me. If I’m being oversensitive or paranoid or if I should keep my wits about me. Part of me doesnt care and hence, my troubles begin. I tend to vacillate between extremes. Being overly conscientious and then not caring enough.
God help me! So this cool night had me thinking about I need to listen to God and when he tries to speak to me. I’m not talking about hearing voices but I do think that there is a voice from God if you listen. This realization comes to me after realizing how important some things are, even though they seem like something we’d overlook.
Resting as our human bodies are not designed like robots able to go 24 hours a day. We need to rest and get those 8 hours of sleep. We need to rest in other ways such as not getting caught up in busyness rather than just plain business. You know the type.. overachievers cramming everything in short day.
I also realize how important it is to just spendtime consulting with God. Lots of times, I rely on my own knowledge or others when I really need to go to God with questions, requests and comfort.
It’s interesting to note that this life on earth is a path. All of us take different paths going in only 2 directions. Up or down. Most of us will go sideways and then get back on track.
