It’s a cloudy, grey morning. As I sit on the balcony to read in the quiet, I’m surprised by how cool and damp it feels. I am longing for a wash of bright, warm sunshine!

And I realize the above is true for my heart too. There has been a lot to weigh it down. It’s hard to remember the last time it felt truly light.

I am so thankful for the nudge to pause the to-do list, even legitimate and time-sensitive work, to let His words restore my soul. These verses from Daily Light could not have been more touching to me and are perfect for today’s breakfast “psalm”:
