The end of last week was a whirlwind. Much as expected I worked very long days, put out many fires and did what I could to keep my body calm so that I wouldn't go into labor.I'm on the other side of that and finally, finally have the space in my mind to reflect and rejuvenate.
Reflecting on the last few days with spiritual eyes I ask myself the question -- Where are the places that needed light? Was I able to be light in those places?
It is times like that, when you are stressed, in "go" mode, and dealing with many stressful relationships that you find out how deeply you have let the Spirit penetrate your soul and how many gifts of the Spirit -- goodness, kindness, patience, self-control -- go out from you. It doesn't take much reflection to for me to realize that I still have much work to do in allowing the important work of the Spirit to supersede my sight-limited vision for what I am to accomplish in a day. I pray that despite myself, the Spirit found opportunities to minister through me and that the Wind continue to blow in and through me that I may find myself more open to the path he sets before me.
