Day 168 of the journey
Eating the Fruit
Today's stop rests on Psalm 128:2. It takes about a minute.
“You will eat the fruit of your labour; blessings and prosperity will be yours.”
Psalm 128:2
The reflection
There is a kind of tiredness at the end of a good day that is not a problem to be solved. It is a gift to be tasted.
One step forward
Let yourself enjoy something you worked for, without immediately starting the next thing.
A short prayer
Lord, you said it and I want to believe it. Where I can't yet, hold me anyway. Let these words go with me into the rest of today. Amen.
