Oatmeal devotions. ~1

I call these 'Oatmeal devotions' because they take place while I eat my hearty bowl of oatmeal each morning, topped of course with Omega-3 rich flax seed. Healthy start for the heart and soul (literally)!

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” ~Matthew 11:28

I have been sheltered from the real world these past few weeks, vacationing up at Lake Tahoe and San Francisco. Now I am back and it is time to face reality. I am about to close on one chapter in my life and begin another, transitioning out of the professional world and back into academia. Lately, I’ve begun to realize how much needs to be done, how many decisions are still up in the air, and how much everything that happens during these next few weeks will affect my future. And it is overwhelming.

God works in amazing ways, reminding us when we least expect of exactly what we need to hear. I sometimes feel like a slave to my circumstances, but I know there is freedom and rest in God.







And now I leave you with a smiling mushroom.
