Some days when I go for a run, I feel like an elephant and I am just trudging along barely able to keep up. But some days feel easy and I feel like the wind is at my back pushing me along. Today was one of those easy days, and I got to run with Dad again which was fun. We were going along at a pretty good clip and it did not seem like a big deal. I don't take this for granted because not every day feels that way for sure.
I know you said that dance was hard for you yesterday as you felt tired and a bit sluggish. So as I am praying for you today, the word "Easy" comes to mind.
28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Matthew 11:28-30 NIV (New International Version)
28-30 “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.” Matthew 11:28-30 The Message
May you keep company with God, Anna, and may you learn to live freely and lightly, and may it come easily to you....
