Whatever
you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human
masters.
— Colossians 3:23 (NIV)
There’s nothing like a 4-day weekend to rejuvenate your mind.
Getting out of the house, away from the normal routine, can do wonders for the
soul. This past week for us meant setting up the RV and spending three days
just breathing a little deeper and relaxing a little more.
I mess up my words sometimes, and once I told my husband that my favorite part about camping was taking time to “decompose.” What I meant was decompress…but honestly after some work weeks, maybe both apply.
But then comes that last morning.
You wake up knowing it’s time to pack everything up and head home. Suddenly the peaceful weekend gives way to laundry piles, unpacking, unfinished chores, overflowing emails, notifications, and trying to remember passwords you somehow forgot in only four days. Then Monday shows up whether we’re ready or not.
Sometimes I think we wish we could stay in those peaceful moments forever. But real life keeps moving.
The beautiful thing is this: God doesn’t only meet us in the quiet campground moments. He goes with us into the ordinary too. Into the offices, kitchens, traffic jams, laundry rooms, meetings, and routines.
Faith isn’t only found in the big moments away from reality. Sometimes it’s found in simply showing up on Monday with a grateful heart and trusting God to walk with us through another week.
So today, as you ease back into the swing of things, remember you are not doing it alone.
