Peace

Whew. We are all packed. It is 9:30 pm, and we're done. I want to chill, watch tv, veg. However, we have to be up by 2:30 to leave by 3:30 to be at the airport by 4:00 to catch a 6 am plane.

Today went pretty well. A few moments of tension, mostly my fault. When will I learn to just let go? I push so hard.

I want to be a peaceful person, I want to be calm and steady. After I wrote my blog a few days ago about daydreaming, a verse came to mind:

"You will keep him in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you." 

The KJV says "whose mind is stayed on thee". I know that's the key. Focus. Don't let your mind stray, don't get distracted. Make Him the center of your attention. Then I will respond to any situation with grace and confidence.

I sneaked away from packing ever so briefly today to grab some photos. Would you know it, in just 10 minutes or so I had some great shots! I actually had a little trouble choosing which one to use tonight.

OK. Enough for tonight. I seriously need to get some sleep. Can't believe the morning starts so early tomorrow. Ugh.
