coffee date

Grab a comfy chair, sit down with me and lets talk. Want coffee? I'm having a decaf dirty chai latte...it

sounds complicated, I feel like my seriously simplified version is kind of a disgrace but I like it. If you

were here I'd offer you one.

If you were here I'd ask you how you're doing...tired? Happy? Content? 

I'd ask what's really on your mind. I'd want you to think about it...sometimes it's good to search

yourself. Really, in the midst of doing and going and seeing and being, what's occupying your

thoughts? Is it good? 

How's your vibe? 

I'd tell you that mine is better than it has been in a few months. I'd maybe mention that I hate to

admit the fact that I am not perfect (it's true..) and that it has been humbling to find chinks in my

armor. 

Par for the course. 

My vibe is good. I'm content, I'm thankful. 

I'd tell you about how God has provided so greatly in the last few days, answering specific requests -

one after another and reminding me that He knows our needs better than we do. 

I'm thankful, my cup is full. 

I'd tell you that sometimes I struggle, I feel the need to qualify my gratitude with "You know..this is

good but God is still good when things aren't wonderful..." The truth is that yes, God is good always

but I am allowed to rejoice in today fully without hesitancy. 

I can rest and simply be thankful for now. 

So I am. 

I'm thankful for financial provision

I'm thankful for good food in our kitchen

I'm thankful for close family 

I'm thankful for the tiny life humming along with me everywhere I go 

I'm thankful for sunshine, I'm convinced it warms my soul 

What are you thankful for? 

xo,

Rachael
