At Calumet

Here I am at Camp Calumet again---this time visiting Lisa at the tail end of her quilt retreats. Camp is a good place to go to get away from it all. But I tend to bring "it all" with me so I don't always feel that release. My problem.

I have to learn to leave things behind and live in the moment that God has provided. Jesus told us to not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. That's good advice that's hard to implement though. We're encouraged to be ready for the future--to save and plan and, yes, to worry about it too. Which advice do we take?

I think you plan and save but you can't let that interrupt your trust in God. So I set a work schedule and keep it--even at camp. But I shouldn't fret about it to distraction from the blessing God is raining down on me at the moment.

So, excuse me, but I think I will take a walk outside right now. Work can wait.
