Life was busy this year, but now it’s different. It’s busy still. More than ever since we’re stumbling over boxes, work, going here and there, painting, cleaning, cooking and boxes again. I just feel like I want to sit in our livingroom and sigh, watch the sun and the trees outside and drink a tall glass of iced tea, listening to some David Crowder. I can’t believe this is my summer. All my summers so far had always felt like summer. I always was somewhere in a camp or on vacation, doing nothing. Now I’m just, doing the things I have to do and I feel there is little time to taste life. It’s hard for me to realize that most people in America live like that, all their lives. Without taking the time to sit still and appreciate what’s around. In the midst of business, no matter how “spiritual” our business can be, I feel it is our Creator’s joy to see us just rest and take pleasure in the daily little things like the sun, the wind, music, our abilties to do so many things, food, friendships, books, flowers, love, grace, mercy and most of all, Jesus our Savior. Though there seem to be little time, Oh! how good it is to savor Christ.

    If you want peace and quiet, natural surroundings, the only thing you can hear are the birds singing and the wind traveling along. If you want to be in a beautiful setting… I know of a house near a small river in the country that needs to be painted!!! If you have a few days you would like to spend there, I’m certain that I can manage it… Ray

  3. P’pa…
    I wouldn’t mind giving a hand. But I never have two days off in a row so I think it’d be tough for me to come and paint and go home and… oh well. Maybe some time later on this summer.
