Good morning, Father!
THANK YOU for a fresh new day, up early and eager to learn, and to create new things with the awesome Creator! :D Thank you for the unexpected day off yesterday, spending time with a good friend and with my Mate. Now I feel refreshed and ready to tackle several projects and other endeavors. Please help me to pace myself, Lord. Too often I get so wound up in one thing that I get burned out and end up not having near as much fun as if I would only STOP and take breaks along the way. My body needs to get up and MOVE and work out and stretch and heal, Lord. Please help me do my little pomodoros (25 minutes of work, 5 minute break) more consistently, so that I can enjoy the Little Things and not rush through my day. Please help me to work on things that bring me joy, not just things that meet my deadlines and self-imposed expectations. Help me to give good time to nature, to my Mate, and to anyone whom you put in my path this day — including the cats that have been hanging around outside my camper more often, lol. THANK YOU for my cozy home, Lord God. THANK YOU for peace and joy and lightness and freedom. Help me use it wisely. Amen.
