I find myself periodically in this space. I’m wrangling to keep my kids on task during the crunch time of work/day evenings. We’re working to stay on schedule to meet a goal, in this case lights out in time for a good night’s sleep. As they seem to wander to and fro, distracted, my guiding …

Pace
Pick it up, Slow down, Live by it, Die by it? Don’t let it kill you, Learn to master it, When to allow yourself to be swept up, When to let hurry by when too quick, It’s up to you, Pace.
“Love Never Fails”
This Good Friday, I feel pretty far from the usual church ideas and rituals around celebrating this day.
