For the moments you feel disconnected from God


Moving week do-list:

  • arrange for hydro
  • finish packing
  • clean bathroom, windows, fridge
  • pick up key
  • buy microwave

The list continues. Most of it can’t be put off. Time and energy run short, and though I try to pray, in the busyness I feel disconnected from God and from what’s going on in my own heart.
I don’t like it. It feels like I’m missing the richest part of life. I don’t want to live this way for long.
Friends help move, unpack, clean. I receive God’s care through them.
And in the midst of it all, there is gift in this reminder, and in the invitation to rest here: My security does not depend on my holding onto God, but on His holding onto me.

    And the great thing is: He never lets go of us! What a great God we have!

    So glad he’s holding on to us and not the other way around. I hope you are back to a routine you like more now!
