Creating Space In Time

It snowed 4 inches here in iowa, last night. it seems like this winter is going to be worse than last year. it didn't snow last year until jan. and it has already snowed 3 times already this year. i guess you can't really control it, just endure it. i'm not a huge fan of winter. the whole bundling up and heading out into the fridgedness of it all. but that is not what i want this blog to be about. it's been a while since i have last had the opportunity to express my thoughts on this so conveniently digital journal of sorts. and so for the first time in at least a week, i have actually created space in the time that i have to write a few thoughts about creating space in time. it seems that i have been increasingly busy since the school year has started. not any huge chunks of my time taken up all at once, but small little increments taken away here and there, not really stolen by anything, just taken up with the things of life. and now as we enter the Christmas season i feel like things just keep getting put on my plate like Thanksgiving Dinner. except things are starting to overflow off the edges, and i'm trying my best to keep everything on the plate, and i have succeeded so far, but it leaves me pretty exhausted. and so i need to create space for rest in amongst everything else. i love that God calls us to rest. so i want to create space for rest & God more.

peace
