S-L-O-W-L-Y with my Lord

Do not BOLT into the day like a racehorse suddenly released.

Wow. ..it that me or what. I think of a lightning bolt that comes out of nowher that shoots across the sky with a loud crackling pop...Ouch....I wonder where did it hit, what did it strike.

Oh how I am like that...I wake up from a peaceful state...and then Bolt out of my bed like a speeding bullet, and then wonder when I strike something or someone with a crackling pop.

Instead I am to “walk purposefully with Jesus, letting Him direct my course..one step at a time”.

When I do that, I am able to see and experience all of the blessings God has for me. I am able to thank Him. I am able to be a light and a peaceful blessing in the lives of those who come in contact with me.

When I make my life a race, bolting in ever which way, I will eventually hit something that will bring me to an abrupt hult. To live that way is exhausting.

I will instead to choose to take my Saviors hand as I get out of bed, and allow Him to walk me slowly through the day that He has planned out with me. I don’t want to miss anything.

So as I walk through this adventure called life, I will...“Be joyful always. Pray Continuously. Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for me in Christ Jesus. “ I Thessalonians 5:16-18
