Slow

I like it when things are nice and slow in my life. That doesn't happen very often between church, school where I live, and school where I work. It seems like I have at least three meetings per week scheduled on a fairly regular basis. Lately, though, the meetings and responsibilities aren't so bad.

I'm about to send my #2 son off to college (looks like LCU is the destination). My #3 son is learning to drive, and #4 son is struggling through Junior High. My #1 son is learning some life lessons in college and working on grad school. I get to ride to and from work every day with my wife. Life is good overall. It's probably no less busy than it has been in the past, but I trust God to work it all out like it needs be.

There are others I know whose world is a mess right now. I feel for them. I wish I could do something to fix it for them. Telling them "I'll pray for you," seems like no help at all. It's amazing how fragile our situation can be at any given time. I hope I remember to always look around and enjoy being in the moment.
