I love that concept. I want to figure things out, process things, fix things (old nurses are like that!), but I think I am learning to sit with things. Last night as i was wandering around the kitchen, unfocused (having returned from a week vacation and not wanting to be home) and thinking a little something from the fridge might work, I remembered to "sit with it" like you said in your book. I realized asking God for focus would probably go further than chocolate!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4457329964617457436.post-48217348430226662932008-04-14T10:12:00.000-05:002008-04-14T10:12:00.000-05:00Beth, Thanks for your thoughts on patiently waitin...Beth, <BR/><BR/>Thanks for your thoughts on patiently waiting for the right light. There's often quite a bit of "sitting around" involved in that wait, sin't there....but I really like this image and will continue to wait for the exceptional light....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4457329964617457436.post-18060536764058155542008-04-09T16:12:00.000-05:002008-04-09T16:12:00.000-05:00Beth,I so enjoyed the retreat and the time we spen...Beth,<BR/>I so enjoyed the retreat and the time we spent with you. I had read parts of your book that applied to my life right now (Valley of Darkness & Desert), but not the parts that I thought were out of my reach (Green Pastures). I am so glad you covered this area because I have a whole new perspective of my Christian life. You were also so right in saying that we are the only ones who can make the fast paced craziness stop! I AM making it stop, and learning to just "BE". This will take some practice! I hope to see you soon!<BR/>Cindy SCindy Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06941644453679574614noreply@blogger.com
