Swimming today

It's just in the quiet of this good days that I stop.

I am still, and altogether overwhelmed with how much is going on around me and how God is knitting together my life even now.

His work is simpler as I yield to Him. This is not such an easy task. I go all day. I wake up with my feet on the floor somedays and fall into bed at night whispering to Him about the goodness of the day, and how I just know He has all things in His hands.

Evening is ebbing it's way in now, the hard work of the day is done and I am grateful for hard work, I am grateful for smiling people that have wrapped grace around me and loved me in spite of who I am. I am grateful for a dream that I have that hangs out in my mind in moments like these.

All things usual. Work, people, dreaming, busy, pots and pans and wiping that table down again, another load of laundry in and "did anyone feed the dog?" And I love every.morsel of normal and life. It is rich.

God whispered to me a secret this New Year. I will share it with you, I believe it's meant to be shared.

I can swim in His love.

I can not worry.

I can rest in Him, all of the time, every moment of the day.

Do you hear it? He says "don't be anxious"....He means, you don't have to be anxious, you can rest in Him .

I know that takes a kind of faith I don't yet have, but I'm beginning to have glimpses of this.

I can not worry.

I can swim in His love, rest.
