Slow Down: looking for gold



Silver linings ...
Gold light ...
God paints the brilliant everywhere ...

So I pause.
It's worth the time to touch the gilded....
























I'm slowing.


A heart can hold the gold.




:::

.... a few slow down prompts from Ann Kroeker's latest book: Not So Fast: Slow-Down Solutions... ... could you pick just one today?

~ Make Gold: Speak a love language today: words of affirmation, quality time, receiving gifts, acts of service, physical touch

~ See Silver: Accept a little creative mess today so dreams can be made

~ Touch Gold: Kneel in Prayer for 10 minutes

~ Line it Silver: tickle someone, laugh long, tell a joke

~ Gather Gold: Memorize one verse of Scripture today.... carry His treausured words with you today

The Plan



In the experiences of a simple/crazy life,
farming Canadian dirt, raising
half a dozen exuberant kids,
stringing sheets out on the line....

I'm praying to slow and see
the sacred in the chaos,
the Cross in the clothespin,
the flame in the bush.

Just a bit of
listening, laundry, liturgy...
life.
