The Gap(s)

I always said when both my kids were in school I would probably go work at the Gap.  Both of my kids are in school and I literally feel like my whole life is working in the Gaps.

It's easy to look back and see that in Bruxelles my Gaps were filled with the smell of waffles, yoga, travel, and culture.  In LA my Gaps seem filled with job angst, the church in red, needy people, and a gone husband.

"We're not waiting on God for significant days.  That never works.  If we live for the hope of seeing significant days in life, we'll toss in the towel.  The Gaps are simply too long.  We need a different goal: faithfulness rather than significance."  Wayne Stiles Waiting on God

So today I choose faithfulness but what does that look like for this mom?

Days of Abundance


Today I behold all the abundance that surrounds me

"This is the air I breathe"
"In Him I live and move and have my being" Acts 17:28
Creation was created with no scarcity: sand, air, stars, cells, gifts, art, space
