MARCH MADNESS.
It was less about basketball and more about a virus that changed everything we knew.
WE LIVED IT for 31 days that felt more like 60.
Our hearts were glued to rising numbers of illness, lost jobs and long days of isolation.
NOW IT’S APRIL.
Time to swim to the surface and take a gasping breath of air. But this time, don’t sink back down into darkness. Stay up here on the surface for a bit.
Dry your eyes and look around. Focus hard on what you DO have. What HASN’T changed. NOTICE that single bloom in a giant patch of weeds.
It’s not time to put the rose colored glasses on quite yet. It’s still really bleak. But maybe it’s time to stand back and focus on something ... anything GOOD.
Ask for help. God will help you see, hear and feel it. And recognizing those tiny glimmers will not only lift your spirit, but confirm that God knows the details of your life. That realization can mean everything.
Yes - March was madness and we’re all still hurting. But join with me and make the subtle shift. The numbers are still going to RISE - but SO CAN YOU. April is a new month.
APRIL is about ATTITUDE.
