Ecclesiastes 4:9,10
“Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work; If one falls down his friend can help him up…”
My Father, my heart is opened for you.
Rest
Okay, I’m resting Father. I’m waiting here for you.
Come, you are Mine and I love you. I am well pleased with you my daughter. I delight in you. Rest.
Okay Dad, I’m resting. Father, I don’t know what to do.
Rest Caroline
Okay -I’m not going to try to do anything, only rest. In my rest, please lead me into freedom…
I love you my faithful one. You are Mine this day.
Reflection:
Last night after midnight I was in the kitchen putting things away and I was thinking to check what was on the menu at the gym in the morning. No one had signed up for the 5AM so I was contemplating going to the class at 6. So I looked at the schedule and saw that they were going to do a lot of core work and double-unders and I thought I really need to be there, so I went and I’m so glad I did! We did 4 rounds of 20 single arm dumbbell hang power cleans (both arms -15lb), 20 kettle bell swings (25lb), 20 up-downs (similar to burpees), and 60 double unders (I only realized it now that it was actually 60 -I only did 20 for each round, blah! Everyone did their own weight they wanted and the time cap was 20 min. One of the strengths before the workout was strict pull-ups, which I needed to use a band. I hope you don’t mind if I post my workouts, it’s something I’ve always enjoyed and I’m so glad to be doing again! Today’s workout was at 6 o’clock, thinking that I’ll always go at 6 on Mondays and 5 on Wed, and Fri. Sometimes after really hard workouts I see prisms in my eyes, which are fine; then I just know to lay down and rest for about 20 min or so and then they go away. I had a really quick dream last night that I was running across a really big room, quickly with excitement because someone was coming!! I don’t have a lot more to say today, but I just wanted to say that when we go on a journey with Jesus by spending time with him everyday, after awhile it becomes such an inviting place to be, being with him.. It deepens our love and intimate friendship with him so much that we can’t help but be drawn to him. Trust has been built and I’m leaning into him…
