lemon ginger tea & dreams

I sip tea, write emails, recycle old documents, update files.

I dream.

This has become my new favorite thing to sip:

It instantly brings to mind the fresh ginger tea they made us in the Dominican, add a bit of honey and I'm there again... in the DR. It amazes me to think that 5 years have passed since that trip. 5 years and I still remember the colors, the people, the exhaustion. The experience changed my perspective and my heart. It stretched me spiritually, emotionally, and physically.

I left with dreams of discovering how God could use me...

Corporate jobs can squash dreams I've learned. Maybe not squash... but push out of the mind, diminish, delay. The desk, computer, emails, papers, pressing deadlines...

I don't want to let my day job remove from my mind all that God has taught me and done in my life. Most importantly, all that God wants me to do with my life... whatever it may be.

What have you lost sight of?

 

Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
Ephesians 3:20-21
