Just nibbling of a piece of dark chocolate and sipping on some iced vanilla coffee at my desk. What a great combination of flavors. You should try it if you haven't......
Anyway, I was thinking of how annoying it is to be constantly cleaning up my hair out of the floor today. Inside I was just about as antsy as my stomach gets when I'm on stage and can't find my guitar pick....or when my bangs have tickled my nose one too many times and I can't seem to locate a dadgum bobby pin to save me from my perils. And then I remembered......why I created this blog. Maybe I should change the title to: Guitar picks, bobby pins, and hair everywhere. Not quite as catchy, huh?
This past weekend was FANTABULOUS! My friend Tracy and I went out for a "one day getaway" on the outskirts of Columbia, TN....we stayed in an extremely cute renovated smoke house (a 10x15 ft. one room loft). It was just what we needed! I walked outside to enjoy some alone time and I stood on a stump in view of the hills, trees, and a field full of cows (that were jumping around and playing the entire time), and watched the sky fade into a shade of dark orange as the sun went down. And it didn't come to me until Sunday morning as I was listening to the pastor @ Mercy Hill church on 12th Ave speak about Acts 4. Topic: Dealing with pain. It hit me.....In my mind I went back to that stump and sunset scene. When I was standing there watching the sky unfold, with tears in my eyes, I asked God to show me what he wants for my life....what I'd missed that day was that He WAS showing me. Then and there on that stump. The display before me......was exactly what God was showing me.....I am loved.....I am not alone.....and my life was created by the One who made that beautiful sunset. Isn't it beautiful when moments come together to complete the picture...like two strings to tie a bow. Like, well, dark chocolate and coffee.
We will meet again soon.
