I've Got Rythm - by Pastor Ben

Traci Ilardo - Friday, October 07, 2011
I really enjoyed our Labor day, but it totally threw me off.
Today is thursday but it’s hard to feel like it is. It sort of feels like Tuesday, which really makes no sense.
I like having rhythm to my week. I don’t want each week to feel the same but I like knowing where I am, that I’m getting everything done and that each week accomplished something.

The older I get, the more I get a larger sense of rhythm. I’ve just started to notice annual rhythms. I prune plants in my yard at certain times of the year. The grass grows different in each season, I can feel the changes coming; I’m starting to look at years more like weeks, hoping to accomplish things and planning out the flow.

It all reminds me that the world was not put together by accident, and that I was made as a part of it. There is an order to things and to my life not by accident, on purpose. The more I recognize that, the better I enjoy the life I’m living. When I realize I’m made to love people well, honor and respect my relationships, invest in tasks and accomplish goals, serve the people around me genuinely, I find that my life falls into a rhythm that I really enjoy.

thinking of that, my mind goes here.
