I am enjoying making my way through a book of short readings, Now is the Time…insights for living the abundant life from Christian Life. It’s one that has so much to think about and work into your soul and spirit that I’m not very far along in the book and I’ve been at it awhile. Not a real page turner, in other words.
I came to a list today that is interesting to me as it seems almost contradictory when first read. The list is “Now is the time to* invite inspiration* find your balance*work wholeheartedly* take a Sabbath*eliminate distractions* choose your conversations* create community*be authentic*live artfully.” At first I thought of them as a list to check off and that’s when they seemed contradictory. But when I gave it some thought and changed the list to a “stew”(choose your own favorite blended item) the savory stew, and of abundant life, is found in the blending of the ingredients. I think the list covers the ingredients pretty well!
Some of my choices of blended items: mocha, chocolate chip cookies with pecans, a stylin’ outfit
Invite inspiration......Hmmmm....today!
Hugs,
