Forced Leisure
I did little today. Just sitting around waiting to get stronger and be back in the flow of things. I read, I spent a lot of time in the Word and also enjoyed a novel about a girl who can fly... don't ask. A good diversion and the plot actually worked.
My friend Carol from Alabama called and we had a good visit. She has one of those voices I can hear well on the phone. It is lower, or deeper than many women, so I don't have to struggle to figure out what she's saying. Seems like I've known her all my life, but it really has only been a bit over ten years. There are a few people in my life who are soul mates... Carol is one of them. I could tell her anything, and like Jesus, she would love me anyway.
So tonight, after doing almost nothing all day long, I am tired. Sitting around is hard work after all. I thought I was more healed than I am, and I find I am weak and still have not much pep. So, since God has me idling instead of revving my motor, I shall be still and try to hear what He may have in mind for these days of forced leisure.
