Yesterday was one of those days were I needed some time with Jesus. Good time in the word. Allow myself to just sit still. I feel emptied. Emptied from planning YL programs, pouring myself into the details, and missing the time of just sweet moments with my YL girls. With every night last week filled with YL...and being completely worn out. I missed time with my Lord. I try to find some point during my day to rest. Rest in his arms. But I have failed to give him the time, the moments, my mind, MYSELF!
My mind has been running on full drive.
I have been running on empty.
I was driving to Loudon High School to go to cheerleading practice yesterday. I put the phone on silent, rolled the windows down and observed the simple beauty of fall. The leaves changing color. The Lord changing me. Reminding me of His significant love. Reminding me of His beautiful creation. Reminding me that He is the one that works. He is the giver of life. To slow down. Appreciate the goodness of the Lord!
Cheerleading practice was amazing. I was able to smile, laugh, help out, encourage, be seen, allow the girls to see how much I care by just my presence alone. I drove home the same way I got there. Rolled the windows down and let the Lord speak to my soul.
Empty. To full.
