A perfect Word for me today as I plan for annual conference and the CLM Academy. My mind is racing with all the details of things that need to be completed. As I grow older, I have come to realize that multi tasking is no longer my strong suit. When I start to feel the sense of being overwhelmed with details, I have no choice but to pause. I have a seizure disorder that is triggered by stress. For three years the Lord has shown me grace and prevented a seizure from occuring and for that I give Him much praise. So when any tension arises from not being able to see my way through circumstances ahead of me, I have learned to pause, stop, relax, pray. I'm not saying it's instantly but it is ultimately my response. God has not failed me and I am often amazed at how the pieces work out. Without any need for me to stress out. It only took about 65 years for me to fully understand what you have so wonderfully put in words of inspiration. Thank you for pointing me to the source of resilience once again. Amen my brother.
“Trust in the slow work of God……” These are the opening words to the prayer of Pierre Tielhard de Chardin, SJ. entitled Patient Trust. It’s been a long process but I’m learning. Thanks be to God.
Listening and waiting—what great advice from God, you, and John Oswalt. I feel an urge to go something else to show my love for neighbor. I’m trying my best to look at opportunities and waiting for the spirit lead time and place. 😀

Man… what a testimony. The Lord is faithful!
Well said. Thanks for these words.
I so needed to hear this right now!
I seem to need it on a daily basis.
