Do you struggle with rest? I'm not just talking about getting enough sleep at night. I am talking about complete psychological, social and spiritual rest, the kind that leads to a good night's sleep. If you do, then join me for an open and honest discussion about why we struggle so hard with rest. While…
Keep On Keeping On
The Presence Of God
I did it.....I opened my front glass door this morning and just stood there, nightgown and all. It was the best feeling to stand there and feel the cool fall air. It made me feel so grateful to be alive...My son Bryant was so scared that the bus would come and catch me standing there,…
The Old Meets The New
I awoke this morning on a college campus. The night before was not pleasant. I remember thinking, "How did I ever think this little bed was comfortable? " Then I remembered the last time I was in a bed this small I was 20 years younger and WAY smaller. Then as I was getting ready in…
Memories…..
I felt really antsy this morning, and at first I couldn't put my finger on why I was feeling restless. Then it hit me: I need to go walking this morning! So after I got Moo on the bus, I took off to walk. I was determined not to be begging this morning during my…
Your Passion
I was walking this morning and I was listening to an old favorite song of mine that I recently rediscovered, "Sooner or Later" by NERD. I walked my first lap, doing the interval thing, and was already sweating. But on the second lap, as I left my street and turned onto another one, I really…
Breathe…..
Today was not the best morning at Team Pruden Headquarters, it seemed more like Team Slack was in full effect lol....so I was eager to get out and walk this morning, because I knew that would make me feel better. I turn on my tunes and look at my play list. I choose USDA's Corprorate…
Follow His Promptings
Another fact people may not know about me: I am habitual, I love a schedule and a plan. This morning my plan was to get the boys off to school and then walk. But aaron missed his bus, so off we went to HCHS. Needless to say, I was miffed and we "discussed" being responsible…
Pursue God
So after quite a hiatus, I set out to walk this morning, anxious to hear from God....it's not that I don't hear from Him at other times, it just seems that these walks/jogs/workouts seem to be the best time for me to be open to hear from Him....and my roller coaster life has been yearning…
My Highwater Pants
So this morning I pull out my walking pants, you know, because it's chilly in the morning now. And when I went to put them on, I shot right through them, I mean they had now become capris!!! So I thought about what to do....and I decided, who cares? I'm just walking. At the end…
Back On Track
After weeks and weeks of neglect, I decided to get back in those flowerbeds again. I looked for my supplies: my gloves, rake, and hand trimmers. I couldn't find any gloves, but I headed out anyway. I decided to tackle the front beds first, because that's the part that is most visible. So I pulled…
