Relax, Read, Enjoy

Take time to relax, do a little reading (poetry links below), and enjoy God’s presence.

“Good poetry helps us get inside a moment, live it, taste it. And writing poetry is an exercise in humility, as it requires us to really listen to people, news, or, yes, even baby wipes. And when we’ve listened and written it down, then we listen again… to what the poem unexpectedly says to us and other people.” L.L. Barkat at High Calling Blogs (You can read her whole article here.)

  1. These are all so good! I loved thise week's challenge. Seems like I do better with clear, concrete instructions. Does that defeat the creative process?

  2. Laura - I am always so in awe of the variety. I too seem to do better with "clear, concrete instructions". Maybe we are more creative within the confines of structure, more concrete ideas, not as abstract. Thanks for stopping by! Nancy

The year has been reclusive as I have just been seeking the Lord and sharing tidbits. Today I quietly reopen the comments section for a while. Thanks for stopping by, listening, and perhaps sharing a word. In Him, mom2six.treasures
