For your consideration……

Today the message is simple. Gather up all those problems, all that is stressing you, the schedules, the work etc.. Imagine putting it in a spare room, closing the door and turning off the light. At first I thought this was just the beginning of today’s message. I thought that “turning off” really meant “letting go”. But I am told “no”. “Letting go” is a much bigger task that we are working towards. Today we are just being asked to put everything aside for a few days.

Spring is beautiful but stressful because it is so busy. End of school events, yard work, spring cleaning, changing the closets around etc. There is just a lot of extra stuff we have to find time for in the spring. We really ramp up in the spring and it is often full speed ahead. It is easy to get overwhelmed.

So going into this holiday weekend we are  we are  being asked to hit the off switch for a few days. We are being asked to pause and go with the flow of life. We are being asked to just go have fun. We are being asked to do whatever moves us or floats our boat. We are being asked to remember what is really important.

That is the HOPE. And so it is.
