We've enjoyed a cloudy day here in NM. A harvest moon is due at 7:15pm. I know those back east are already enjoying it. A harvest moon is related to hayrides, pumpkins, apples, carmel apples, flannel shirts, boots, jeans, chili, hot dogs cooked outside and cold, crisp, clear skies. Not quite here in NM...but other places are enjoying fall weather.
I found this quote today. Sometimes things come to you from the most unexpected places. When going through times of crisis, whatever that means to you. "Rather than think, I'll never survive this, try, I'm having the thought that I'll never survive this." You recognize that there is a problem - not avoiding it, you recognize there is a problem, but it is a thought. All about reprogramming. Thoughts like feelings are something we deal with constantly. God says, "Take every thought captive."
I still believe the best way through a crisis (though I am not always successful at this) is laughter, tears and dear family and friends, who listen and make our load lighter. Learning to wait, listen, be still, pray and seek wisdom.
We have such great examples of people who have been through crisis after crisis and never lost their grip on hope or on God. "There is a place of quiet rest, near to the heart of God." We're relying on this.
Though we have every luxury of home in Colorado, it's nice to be home and have my ironing board again. : )
Have a good evening. Off to check out the moon.
looking out the back door in Colorado...lovely mountain stream
