When the day is hectic and it seems like there is no end to the demands on my time or tasks that need to be done. I need to seek some refuge. It is the days where I feel like a human doing instead of a human being, that I most need to remember who I am. The quickest way for me to do that is to stop and take a breath. The other thing I do is find a way to see God. That could be by remembering something that made me smile recently, listening to a favorite song, smelling a flower, seeing a sunrise or sunset–anything that puts me in touch with the sense that God is near. I don’t know why it works, but it does. I am grateful when I am able to feel nearer to the One who created me into being because that nearness allows me to transition in a small way from a human doing to a human being. My prayer for us today is that we connect for ourselves one more way that we can be nearer to the One who loves all the itty bitty pieces of who we are. Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen
