Growth comes in many different forms
Physical, psychological, spiritual –
Three of the ways we grow.
Am I growing?
Are you?
Huh?
Sometimes, like the caterpillar,
We have to STOP to grow.
We have to hide out.
We learn to quit.
Don’t push.
Rest.
So, I determined several days to rest.
I rested last week and yesterday.
I didn’t come here to blog.
Hear the Holy Spirit.
Settle my mind.
Listen.
My days of rest from blogging
Were focused on listening –
Receiving His guidance,
Feeling God leading,
Really tuning in,
Growing.
Now I’m sitting with a box on my head.
I’m waiting expectantly –
Hoping that someone
Will lift the box –
Lead me
Home.
And when I am again safely home,
Lift the box and help me
Emerge from chrysalis
To spread my wings
And grow into
Butterfly!
Embrace Growth!
Happy Sunday to you!
May this be a week of emergence and growth.
Hugs to you!
Thanks for visiting JanBeek
See ya tomorrow (God willing)

Taking a break can be good. Well done
Thanks, {{{Derrick}}} – I needed that break! <3
True words, we should learn to embrace growth and always know when to pause to re-energize.
Knowing and doing are often two different animals, aren’t they? Thanks for your visit and taking time to comment. I appreciate you!
Yes they are. Welcome
I can relate to your discussion Jan. While my writing serves as a therapeutic tool at times, the Word of God recharges my batteries like nothing else. Sometimes I, too, take a respite from the world of blogging. When I return, I feel so much more energized. God’s grace and peace.
Thanks for affirming and understanding!
