God's timing is always so great, even through the really hard things. I can't express how happy I am that it's a three-day weekend so I have more recovery time.
I love the slow and quiet mornings (even if they are filled with a lot of physical pain).
...the burning candles
...the music playing over the speakers in the kitchen
...the Isagenix protein shake on the back deck in the cool fall-ish air
...the time with my golden retriever
...the great devotional
...the stack of fun magazines
Below is an excerpt from what I read in Streams in the Desert this morning.
"We are fashioned after the same principle. The human trials of life are burned into us numerous times, and through God's grace, beautiful colors are formed in us and made to shine forever."
Cortland Myers

And seriously...who doesn't want to be a stronger, brighter, better, shinier person? (smile)
Happy Labor Day!
