what am i seeking?

We see always what we are looking for, and if our mind has become trained to look for trouble and difficulty and all dark and dreary things, we find just what we seek. On the other hand, it is quite as easy to form the habit of looking always for beauty, for good, for happiness, for gladness, and here, too, we shall find precisely what we seek.
-J. R. MILLER

found this quote; so eloquent, so very true.

today; look for something beautiful, something good.

what am i going to seek today?

sometimes I need to listen.

“Listen to advice and accept instruction, and in the end you will be wise. Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the LORD's purpose that prevails.”

Proverbs 19:20-21

I love this verse. It never fails to remind me that no matter what I plan, prepare, or hope for the Lord already knows. He has my plan mapped out.

Listen. Sometimes my mouth moves so fast I stu.. stu.. you know, stumble over the words I want to say. Those who know me well would know that often my mind moves faster than my mouth can keep up with. Skipping major words and ending up with sentences that sound something like.."I'm..going.. yes.. okay. Ready?"

Today, I'm going to make an extra effort to just stop. and listen.
