Psalm 85:6 “Will you not revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you?”
Vacations are nice. Going. Seeing. Doing. Relaxing. Taking it easy. I enjoy traveling. The excitement of visiting new places. Little gems to discover. New activities to try. Most of all, it’s the “memory making” with family that fills my heart.
Being on the long road home, little side trips as we journey to our final destination, I think Dorothy said it best: “There’s no place like home.” Happily unpacking, hugging our fur babies, settling back into familiarity with friends and family, back to the day to day, routines that fill our day. Our hearts are full. It’s been a good trip. So much to be thankful for as we reflect on time spent away.
Not only have our bodies been able to rest (sort of), our minds have been able to, as well. No deadlines, no meetings, no agenda, etc… Phones are put on silent, silence is available. Thoughts to meditate on. Minds slow down. Our souls are refreshed, as well. Spending time communing with God, seeking Him, enjoying His creation while embracing the solitude.
