After working a crazy busy shift yesterday at Anthro I slept in this morning until 10 #blessed
Woke up to some good ole Ben Howard acoustics and my windows still wide open. After all this rain we’ve been having, the sunshine waking me instead of my alarm was just what I needed.
I threw on a pair of yoga pants (because who wears regular pants on a Monday?) and left my house with half an hour to spare before class.
1. I always wake up late (working on it)
2. Even when I wake up with enough time I like to procrastinate actually getting out of my bed
Sooooo I have no idea why or how I left that early.
I’ve been praying for adventure in the quiet moments. To see how Jesus romances us in our day to day “boring”. Safe to say He heard me.
Hoped in my car, listened to some of my favorite music and decided to try a new coffee shop. 7 Leaves you are now my new favorite place to get a straight Matcha Iced Tea, hella good my friends. The macaroons looked super awesome but it was 10 in the morning so I had to hold myself back, it just means I’ll be making another trip at a more dessert appropriate hour.
There’s this tiny little farmers market stand thingy ma bob right next to my school and as I was passing it I totally heard the spirit say, hey go check it out let me show you what I have planned for the day.
Safe to say I will be spending A TON of time at this tiny little market. And how crazy I’ve been passing it for YEARS now never stopping by?!
If it had been my way this morning, I would have rolled out of bed 15 minutes late, grumpy and running to class. BUT surrendering the little moments allows for Jesus to show us the freaking beautiful world he has created, and gives us the chance to fully breathe in his presence and grace and his ability to take an extra 30 minutes in our wayyyy too busy world and show us how his spirit is working.
Monday morning, you were real good & soul filling. Never thought I would say that bout a Monday.
Thanks Jesus for leading me and allowing me to surrender control. You bring adventure in the mundane, and peace in the crazy.
Not bad for a Monday. Not bad at all.
