Taking A Moment

As I sit here and write this entry I am taking a "pause for me moment". I am learning the importance of these moments in our days. With three jobs, a household to take care of, not to mention working on keeping my relationships strong and healthy, a girl can get quite frazzled. So I am trying to live more intentionally on time with God and time with myself.

I spent the morning running errands, going to the doctor, doing social media for the magazine, record label call, brought my husband and co-workers muffins, I just finished refinishing a chair and now I am sipping a hot cup of water with coconut oil and vitamin D while I breathe for a moment with my blog and some good music.

When you are running in a thousand directions at once make sure to step back and look at the big picture. Make sure all the things you are doing that keep you so busy are things you truly want to do, or enjoy doing. Did I have to bring my husband muffins in the middle of a ton of stops or did I have to refinish a chair this afternoon? 

No I didn't have to. But seeing him and doing those little things brings me joy and I am hosting a dinner party for friends tonight and I would feel better about my kitchen if all four chairs were done as opposed to an odd three.

What have you done for you today? Have you intentionally thanked God every blessing in this day, big and small? Take five minutes today to do so and let your body mind and soul refresh and reset.
