Take that first sip of coffee in the morning in my fluffy robe and slippers
Pet the cat until he purrs - loudly
Step out the door and breath in some fresh air
Enjoy some uplifting music
Wear a favorite sweatshirt
Talk on the phone with a loved one
Stand over the stove slowly stirring a pot of savory stew
I'm still gonna love sunshine as well as big snowflakes
Stand in awe at the lakeshore
Laugh as often as possible
Take time to really rest
Sit quietly in candlelight
Allow myself time to read a real page turner of a book
Eat chocolate with my eyes closed
And still find comfort in familiar bible passages
Hum a praise song or two
Eat bread and drink wine
I will remember again and again: nothing can separate us from the love of God (Romans 8:38-39), the care of God, the very presence of... God.
Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope: Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. I say to myself, "The Lord is my portion (meaning enough); therefore I will wait for Him. (Lamentations 3:21-24)
You will have a joy that no one can take away. (John 16:22)
