Masks?!!! 

When I look overwhelmingly at the graduated college kid’s stuff PILED from coming home, now re-attacking it to sort and pare down, I stopped to MARVEL at the mom-made homemade COVID MASKS (and ones supplied by the college). Remember those? LOVE the fabrics… LOVE the playful or elegant ways to keep walking… 

Ancient history now in my life 4 years ago (4 yrs ago was prepping for a 2nd year return of a 5 year program, she got nearly all semesters on campus, thank God for her education and life experiences). ANCIENT HISTORY now in my mind, and maybe in hers and probably yours too. TIME FLIES!!!

It was a moment in time, WE GOT THROUGH IT, think Psalm 23 in miniature.  College survived and we survived college, now we move on (still got to deal with the pile, lol)… When I think of 5 years of college, the PILE(S) IS WORTH IT… When I think of the FUTURE, the past was powerful in saying KEEP GOING! Power through and THRIVE!!!

Now of the future, how can we think of anything but the blessings of KEEP MOVING… “Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever”.

Amen!!!

Psalm 23 KJV

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
