My Heavenly Hug

As is often the case when I have something "big" to do (travels, retreat, etc)....I woke up this a.m. and decided to clean my work space (not really a desk as it's the top of a baker's rack in the kitchen)....to the right of the baker's rack is a wire heart.....it often holds things like photos, cards, library notices, bills, letters .... I purchased it years ago and it serves a dual purpose. It has reminded me for years "It's the HEART stupid" or "Intimacy".....


As I've been planning a local Fall Rally and Coordinating a Regional Conference it was cluttered. I decided to pare it down - the rally cry of SIMPLIFY ringing in my ears....un-distracted obedience....keep it simple but meaningful....As I removed the clutter look what I found. 

You might not be able to see, but it's RED (a color I like), it has a crown at the top and the message is so perfect, profound and simple.  The theme I'm living life by these past few months is KINGDOM....and there it is on my heart. 

I love it when God speaks so clearly.  I removed the clutter from my heart and I found His voice....Keep Calm, Carry On....it summarizes His voice to me in the past weeks.....and so I'll leave it just like that as long as I can. 

BTW prayers for our local Fall Rally which kicks off this evening are appreciated. Regional Conference is in November. 

Choosing Joy!
