Peaceful perception...

As this season continues to unfold...and as winter weather draws closer, I notice a growing sense of urgency, weariness and concern.  There's so much to do.  Time is running out.  How will so much be accomplished with all that is happening around us? 

I feel it, too...much more than I intended.  Although my plans begin months ahead, I somehow feel the rush, the pressure and the panic no matter how hard I try to avoid it.  What should be a celebration of a miracle becomes a competition and marathon.  Instead of enjoying and embracing this time of year, I find myself frustrated and frantic. 

Then I read this Scripture passage which revealed my dilemma.  My perception has been about what needs to be done...instead of Who He is now...and forever.  May I focus on His purpose, His peace, His Precious Son and His Presence..always.♥~thl

"The Lord gives strength to His people; the Lord blesses His people with peace."  Psalm 29: 11
