The shortest distance between 2 points may be a straight line but a direct route is not always the best path! We are halfway through our 2 week stop on our way to Florida via Kentucky. :-) While this stop is completely out of the natural way to our new home, it is an incredible blessing to take this time to spend two weeks with my family. The cousins are getting to play together, and I'm getting to soak in one last dose of my favorite season!
Our journeys to "the next thing" can include a lot of stops along the way, and if we are not careful we can miss the blessings in the trip because we are too focused on the destination. Wherever you are, take time to stop and look around. Give thanks for your blessings and enjoy the moments. Try to spend time seeing what the Lord is doing instead of focusing on what you are trying to accomplish.
