This has been a long month. Many great things going on, though... Bible studies, preaching, teaching, music, visits with friends, etc.
Today I took a Sabbath day. I was doing pretty well at doing this weekly. However, the past couple of weeks have found me doing too much, and sometimes not prioritizing well.
I went to the beach today. It was a beautiful day. I put on sunscreen, sat down with the little lunch I had packed, and started reading my one-day spiritual retreat book. It was a great lesson on happiness and joy. I started to write in my journal and remembered that my pen had run out of ink. I did not have any other pens with me! So, after a few minutes of prayer, I headed to the water to walk and enjoy spending time in my 'happy place.'
After a couple of steps into the water I noticed this...
And after looking around, saw more!
I don't know much about jellyfish, but was fascinated by them. I didn't touch any of them, just in case!
Can you see the clear one in the water? |
On my way home I stopped by the outlet mall to eat at the Hawaiian hamburger place. I was too tired by then to do any shopping. So tired, in fact, that I forgot to get my change out of the vending machine when I bought a water for the drive home! Guess I got to make someone else's day!
I arrived home to see this...
and this...
I love Sabbath!
