beautiful words...

from... a holy experience

"1. Life is not an emergency.

Life’s a gift. 
Just Slow.

 2. Now is not a forever grace but amazing grace.

Do whatever it takes to wake to wonder right here.

 3. Sometimes the slowest way is the fastest way to joy.

{Slowest=fastest to joy}

 4. Laughter is the cheapest, holiest medicine.

Preschoolers laugh 300 times a day. Aim for double that. Tickle someone, (yourself!), if necessary. This is good!

 5. Motherhood is a hallowed place because children aren’t commonplace.

Co-laboring over the sculpting of souls is a sacred vocation, a humbling privilege.

Never forget.

 6. Homemaking is about making a home, not about making perfection.

A perfect home is an authentic, creative, animated space where Peace  and Beauty are embraced.

{Perfect does not equate to immaculate.}

 7. A pail with a pinhole loses as much as the pail pushed right over.

A whole life can be lost in minutes wasted, small moments missed.

 8. Believe it: I have all I need for today.

The needs of our day are great but our God is greater and we call Him Providence because we believe: He is the One who always provides.

{And when God provides, He should be praised, and if God always provides, shouldn’t praise always be on the lips?}

 9. Slow. Children at play.

The hurry hurts the kids.

Time’s this priceless currency and only the slow spend it wise enough to be rich.

If we had to actually buy our time, would we spend it more wisely — spend it more slowly?

{God’s Word never says Hurry Up. God words only whisper: Wake Up.}

 10. Love is patient.

Parenting’s this gentle way of bending over in humility to help the scraped child up because we intimately know it takes a lifetime to learn how to walk with Him.

Patience.

Love always begins with patience."
