Act of Service.

I am absolutely spent. I've been sick for six weeks with pneumonia, bronchitis and a sinus infection...yet still traveling and only took two days off for work. Smart? No. Even my boss told me last week that I had to learn to stop and rest when I got sick.

So that's that. I'm learning that sickness oftentimes comes because our body is saying please rest. Please stop. Please learn to say no. Please put that project aside for a little while. Please stay in your pj's all day. Please go to the spa. PLEASE....for the love of mankind.

My best friend Kendall is having her baby as we speak. She texted me this morning "MY WATER JUST BROKE"....and then called....and of course I had to ask how all of that process worked (we are friends like that...)..."but wait, how does that feel?!". At any rate, I promised her I'd be there when her sweet baby was born. And I intend on keeping that promise.

And my mom, sweet as she can be, is going to drive me up to Memphis in the morning so I can see my bestie and meet her baby. Such a kind, kind act of service. Don't ever overlook those moments. So very precious. She knows my exhaustion and is choosing to bless my life so I can share this major blessing with a best friend....and in turn, we'll get great time together as well!
