when the world keeps spinning and you stand still

summer has been a busy time for us. we are making friends, going to weddings, understanding more about marriage, making big decisions, relaxing, hanging out with family, working 40 hours a week etc... with all the activities that have been going on, sometimes i find myself wanting to stop time. i long for that stillness that comes when you stop letting activities run your life. in that stillness i often find myself having wonderful conversations with Jesus and i'm able to hear Him a little better too. oh, to just stand still.
