oday, a forced day... or an unforced day? Which will it be?
I'm learning to discern what trend is having sway... when I'm forcing things not meant to be and when I'm leaning into Gods "unforced rhythms of grace."
Forced feels old, stale, chest-tightening, life-taking and relationship rocking.
The words of forced include "really should," "Hurry up," "I'm trying," "Will you hold on?" "Give me a break?" "Why me!?"
Forced includes locked jaw, crossed eyes, agitated gut, sweating brow, shallow breath. Not how it's meant to be....
Forced includes tense relationship, forgiveness withheld, holding back truth, managing image. Not how it's meant to be...
Listening to our words... noticing our bodies... seeing our impact and recognizing that Jesus has made a new way of life available to those who are willing.
(Matthew 11:28-30)
Today, the choice of forced or unforced. The closed or the open hand, the free smile, the embrace. The rush or the deep breath, the long walk, the joy of sunshine. The bruised or the blessed. The cursed or the content.
Which one...just for today?
