Early morning walk. Well, somewhat early. I set out at 7:30, passing a few walkers and one jogger along the way. There is something about the morning that encouraged me to walk a longer route-- I could have kept going all over town. No guilt about starting the day doing ‘nothing’. Yes, I was exercising, but mainly I was talking and listening to God. My talk went something like this,
“Well, God, what do you want me to do? You know that I don’t want to do a lot, that I want to sit in the silence with you, that I want to lead a simple life, that I want to pray for people, and that I need solitude for that.”
“That’s what I want you to do. Does that answer your question?”
“Yes. Help me surrender. I feel so many obstacles.”
That was all I could hear but it is enough to ponder. I have some thought that I need to live from my heart more than from my head, that I have to keep looking through a God lens.
