Slowing Down

I just read this transcript from a radio show by Nancy Leigh DeMoss. I'm planning on rereading it soon. Recently I've been praying about my daily schedule and even this past week have really been trying to evaluate what is essential for my day. It seems if I am constantly hurrying my girls along in their day and I do not want to continue doing that. It's been wonderful to step away from "normal life" for a couple of weeks and watch them play more and have more conversations with them!

Psalm 23

The Lord Is My Shepherd

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
