Soon.
13 years ago I used to participate in the Five Minute Friday community as I blogged about being a stay at home crafty mama of littles fighting anxiety. (Geeky and Sassy) I am finally joining in again after a decade and am excited to reconnect.
The idea is that you write for 5 minutes about a prompt, without editing, without overthinking. I learn from and am encouraged by practice, but somehow I began to sit in perfectionism again. So, here it goes!
Prompt: Soon. Timer Set: 5 minutes.
The clock ticks and the chores multiply. What-ifs attempt to drown out the confidence in walking boldly into what God is calling our family to act on.
Pack, trust, release, behold. So many moves, so little answers.
Control beckons as I push it away and beg for strength. New beginnings begin to rise in my heart and give me the energy to type again after a decade, share again after the years that fear stole.
Redemption beckons and faith steps into new beginnings, greeting us again.
The hidden lurks
STOP
Side note: I realized how much I pray between thoughts, and how slowly I write somedays. What a great practice. Will you join? How is the Lord challenging you to step out?
