Quiet time

So if you couldn't tell life has been pretty busy for me. The last few week have been stress filled and not easy in varying aspects of "life". Today, however, I got a breathe of air.

I was zoning out Intro to ministry class, poor teacher I don't think I hear much of his lecture about various sources of expectations; mainly due to the noise of my own brain whirling away a to do list. I watched the clock, steadily counting down the time.
"expectations of God", my teacher continued.
"mmmm", I mused as my brain shock off the to do track and started wondering about His expectations fans what impact they would have on my list.
"Spend time with me." He whispered.
I shivered as I reviewed my list, I had specifically driven to class so that I could drive to work ASAP to ensure making the shuttle.
"let this be a reminder that life is fragile" my teachers words echoed back to me as I pondered for a time slot.
"okay" I resigned, I could spend a few min between class and work with Him instead of socializing with my co workers or entertaining myself with my phone.
As soon as class let out I scurried off to my car found my little bible and had a great 10 min just talking and interacting with my Father. It really changed my day around and while not All my troubles disappeared in a snap, they really did become more bearable. And so in my quiet time I found a breathe of fresh air and I highly recommend it - it's really not a lot of time In the grande scheme of things but even the simplest tactic wins a battle which can in time, win a war.
