we complain and stress about the dumbest things sometimes, lets get our priorities straight and realize life is good, God is still gooder, we are blessed and take our blessings for granite way too often. Stop complaining, start being grateful, and let God's presence and love be enough to overcome even the tiniest complaint, because it will.
I had a wonderful run today, 75 minutes of thinking of nothing but the green grass under my feet, the cool salty breeze on my face, and the blessed legs I have that are SO not injured yesss pleeaseee. No worries, no tears, no stresses. It ended with me staring at the sunset as I stretched way longer than usual because it was ridiculously beautiful.
Sunsets have been knocking me off my feet lately with their beauty, I guess I have not slowed down and been in the present enough, before this semester, but what work it does on my heart when I do take a deep breath, let my muscles relax, and let my eyes gaze at God's beauty rather than the stress of the world around me...
ok now I need to read, darn school, gets in the way of my awesome thoughts sometimes :) but the old me would not have written this because I would have just wanted to power through my homework so the stress would go away, but I am completely calm right now, thanks big Guy ;)
song im listening to that is reallll good for the soul: the wonderful cross
