"My people will abide in a peaceful habitation, in secure dwellings, and in quiet resting places."
Isaiah 32:18
Yesterday I saw these words on twitter, "Do something unexpected with someone you love today." Good right? I didn't put these words to action yesterday--but I did today. I already knew today was going to be jam packed-I had an early Saturday morning meeting that was going to leave me about an hour before we had to leave for a wedding. My meeting ended a little early-so I rushed home and announced, let's have a picnic! Off to subway we went and took a short walk to a field at the base of the mountain. It took me awhile to get over the fact that we no longer live on the coast, but I love this mountain that God's given us to enjoy! And today....was absolutely beautiful....
Day 6. I love the spontaneous....problem is I think we get so bogged down in the everyday routine that we miss the opportunity for good quality time with the ones we love. So yes-do the spontaneous. Do it soon--but let's make a long term goal together to be intentional and schedule in those quality time moments that memories are made of. Whether it be date night with your husband or a trip to the zoo with the whole fam--do it! And do it often! Because being intentional with the ones you love---leads to giving your family an Isaiah 32:18 home.
And we did make it to the wedding--another beautiful picture of the goodness of Jesus!
