Five Minute Friday: Stretch

It's Friday. It's another five minutes of free writing with Lisa-Jo Baker.



Stretch.

Life is moving at a speed never intended and try as we may the brakes don't seem to be catching.  So we try to keep up.

Not in a sinful I want what you have way.

In a -
there are people to love on, and jobs to be done, and meals to be cooked and laundry to be washed, and kids who want to paly and parents to catch up with and schools to register for and God to be served and worshipped
kind of way.

And our bodies tighten and our souls begin to ache. 

So we put our hands together and reach for the God Daddy in the sky, and bend in ways we wouldn't want captured by Kodak, and we S-T-R-E-T-C-H.

And our God Daddy stretches back- and touches us with all we need to slow the pace.

And we do.

Happy Friday y'all, reach for sky!

  1. Exactly! I know I need a brake (break!) check and so glad God reaches to meet us where we are. :) Visiting from Five Minute Friday.

  2. Robin,
    I love it! I can see you stretching for Him and I can see Him putting the brakes on for you--even if just for a moment! What a beautiful family you have!
    God bless!
