When I’m at home wondering if God is pleased with me, there will be times He shows me a ladybug or a rainbow, and it’s often reassuring. It’s a private confirmation of His love for me. So, when it happens while we’re away, it’s not only refreshing but further confirms the fact that we don’t worship a God who exists in a specific location nor one who only loves us when we are working. He loves us wherever we are and displays His love by communicating personally through the daily grind or when we’re quietly recharging.

Oftentimes, I am eager to get the kids out into nature for a reprieve. Who doesn’t need a hiatus every now & again? A day sabbatical? A break from routine? You CAN have this very thing for yourselves. The only stipulation is that you have to prioritize it! For someone like me, no one has to twist my arm to “get me out of dodge”, so to speak! Since I am an introvert at heart I frequently crave autonomy when it comes to how I spend my/our time. I mean, I like to be around people but not necessarily interacting WITH people a lot. Ergo, when the children & I venture out to different parks, playgrounds, lakes & rivers I get absolutely giddy because it’s like our own special oasis away from the world- yet we’re together all the same!
