Sometimes the best thing we can do is slow our pace and take a breath.

Let the air fill your lungs, 

notice the way the wind sways the trees, and the way the light finds its way through the branches.

God speaks to me there, 

in the quiet reminder that I am His.

If your mind feels full or your heart feels tired, let this be your invitation to come back to this moment.

His presence is enough for this breath, His grace is enough, and His hope is steady. I open my hands, 

I breathe deeply, and remember that God is restoring me.

So today I stay close to Him, I notice beauty, and take the next step in front of me, because that is enough.
