I haven't participated in Jenni's May blogging challenge up until this point, but I'm excited to get to blog through some of these topics now that I am finished with... ya know... COLLEGE. I don't know how long it will take me to fully wrap my mind around the idea that I'm no longer a college student but a real deal adult. This journey to "real life" has been WILD, y'all.
Today I'm sharing a little moment with you that has made it's way into my day quite frequently lately. I've been an avid tea drinker for a while now, but I've just now happened on the little box of heaven called "True Blueberry". This herbal tea makes my soul feel all warm. It sound so stupid to say that, but tea has become very therapeutic for me. We've recently switched around some furniture in the house and my great-grandmother's old chair has found a new home in our living room next to the big window. I've been spending some afternoons sitting in that old chair with a cup of my new favorite tea. I open the curtains and raise the blinds up just far enough for my cup to slide onto the windowsill. I've said that I'd like to get a small table for beside the chair, but I've come to enjoy the simplicity of just using what's convenient.
I'm trying to learn how to slow down and not jump ahead of what the Lord is telling me. So often I want to ask God a million questions so I can figure out the next step before He tells me. But, that's not faith. Faith is believing even though I can't see what's coming. I want to sit and be quiet and learn a little bit more about having faith while I wait for the Lord to speak.
I want to sit in my great grandmother's chair, sip on tea out of her old china, and just be. No social media, no television, no distractions. Just sit.
That is the kind of moment that I want in my day.
