Micro Managing...

I've neglected this blog for many reasons but one being that the app on my phone hasn't been working.  I would type and then it would shut me out.  How jolly rude?!  Besides that I've always felt convicted to write and I mean that in a keen interest kinda way.  When I think about writing I get butterflies in my stomach.  It means so much to me that someone might find value in the chaos that often is my mind and really this blog is a reflection of my mind. 

Anyway,  there are so many things I feel I want to write about.  Like when you haven't seen a friend for a long time you just have so much to say.  So here goes!  

Today I've been thinking about how we zoom in on something in life.  It can be a flower that is in bud.  We are so zoned into it that we may forget the garden around us that is in full bloom.  Recently I have been seeking the attention of a few people instead of continually thanking God for the flowers of friends that I have.  So THANK YOU GOD for the flowers of friends that I have.  

But it goes further than that I think.  We can really micro manage our lives to a point we forget to enjoy them.  We really can be so over ploughing a certain circumstance in our life that actually doesn't need attention.  What I mean is digging up the seed while its trying to grow.  What actually needs to happen is the season needs to change.  There is nothing wrong with your work, nothing wrong with what you are doing to nurture it but there is also power in trusting and letting go and letting the one who controls the weather do His thing.

I am speaking here from my own personal internal battles.  Firstly I hope this makes sense and secondly I hope you'll be gracious if it doesn't.  

Be blessed friends,
Phoenix and Sarah
