Forrest Gump
Morning Sunshines! It’s been a week since I’ve written a Morning Thought for you but I wanted you to know that I’m still here!
I don’t know what it is….summer about to hit? Senioritis? Different season?
I feel like Forest Gump in the scene where he’s been running for three years and then all of a sudden stops and says : “I think I’m done runnin.”
I’m NOT done writing. Not even close. But I do feel like there’s a pause and perhaps, a new direction coming that I need to be still in order to discern.
At the beginning of the year, the Lord told me “all things new” and yet, the tendency to hang on to “all things I’ve always done” is strong.
How can I be sensitive to the spirit to feel the shift, hear the new, discern the next step IF I’m occupied doing what I’ve always done?
Anyway. I love you. I’m here. I hope you’ll stay here. I’ll keep you in the loop. And….if you haven’t already and want to, you can download the substack app on your phone. I’m going to start going through my over 4,000 saved Morning Thoughts and uploading them here!

P.S. now that I’ve written this, I’ll probably wake up in the morning with some fabulous thought I want to share 😂 … that’s usually how it goes:)
P.S.S. I’d love to know if YOU have been feeling a pause on things you’ve been doing or if you’re sensing the need to be available for what’s coming? Talk to me.
I’m right there with you. Since the beginning of the year I’ve been on a pause with my writing. And I also think it’s the space I need for some shifts and changes that need to happen.
Thank you for sharing this. It reminds me that’s it’s very normal to go through these phases! Can’t wait to see what you’re cooking in the stillness and in the pause!
It DOES help to hear others are sending the same thing doesn’t it?!? Helps me to hear that from you as well! And yes…I think it is normal. Waves. Seasons. Following the “unforced rhythms of grace”.:)
