just breathe


hey y'all... it's been a bit of a rough month. just a big roller coaster of emotions & changes. and the thing that i'm most afraid of has been creeping its way into my life: getting burnt out.

so i’m off at a cabin in jackson this weekend & the drive here was a great time for reflection. i drove for about 3-4 hours & threw on some aaron strumpel tunes. i really let the songs sink in deep. and as i was singing & looking out at the sky, i just began to weep. i felt like the lord was reopening my heart towards him & all the things that he cares about. i was remembering just how beautiful jesus’ way of life is.

i need to be spending more time in solitude with god so that i actually have something valuable to bring back to community. my love for other people, myself, simplicity, sharing, peace & service are all going to be fueled by & pour out of a real relationship with the lord.
