“In today’s rush we all think too much – seek too much – want too much – and forget about the joy of just being.” Eckhart Tolle

A simple pleasure in my life these days is unhurried Saturdays. I find them truly wonderful. Last night I set no alarm, and rested well. I spent the morning immersed in the Bible, telling myself after lunch I’d accomplish some schoolwork. So there I sat, back against the wall, my Bible, journal, some books, colored crayons for marking, pens for writing scattered all around me… reading and absorbing. Frankly, in my life, unhurried Saturdays are a manifestation of the favor of God.

Just being, not pushed and prodded by a long list of tasks and expectations, is a marvelous thing. Thank you, Jesus.
