It is a day of all green lights. You know what I mean, when you hit the streets and all lights are green. You get to work with a smile creased across your face.
That is my week thus far - all green lights. One moment of glory following the other days of discontentment and I am left with yes mams and no thanks you's coming from the mouth of babes.
How do we celebrate moment of glory in the middle of a lifetime of chaos?
I choose to celebrate by sharing the moments with you to remember and reflect later.
The new chore chart up and they run to check off the boxes, the morning breakfast with no spills and helpful cleaner uppers. The bed time routine followed without whining or crying. The early evening quietness that relaxes the nervous system.
The days began with eagerness to learn more and completed with a verse that has been memorized with nagging. Sibling sharing without expectations!
The devil must not be attacking the A Team (my family nickname: Aspergers, Asthma, Addiction & Anger) this week.
The dryer and washer empty, the floor cleaned, the dishes done, the dogs walked the bills paid and the day still has time.
My preparation must include time with the God of Glory, music, laughter, sleep, exercise, open conversation with a genuine friend and stillness.
May I reread to remember in the heat of battle against the threats of this world My moments of glory!
