"But if these years have taught me anything it is this: you can never run away. Not ever. The only way out is in.” ― Junot Díaz

When thinking of 'escaping' I realized this quote is TRUE! Some of us know there is not a way to run away from life, or happenings in life. All you can do is go forward even if you have to go in and go through it.   

SLOW DOWN YOU MOVE TOO FAST...
You've got to make this moment last...
"Feelin Groovy" by Simon and Garfunkel

Our lives have become woven to the thought of instant gratification or instant results. The electronics we keep at our fingertips allow us to fly at high speed through life. We also know what EVERYONE else is doing in life every single day and suddenly their worries become our worries and next we find ourselves deep into instant stress. Throw in bad weather, bad politics, arguing surrounding us and everyone taking sides and pointing fingers. and you have stirred up a mess of stress. We all have opinions what people should do or should not do and we wait eagerly watching the outcome, only to fall into disappointment if the outcome is not what we thought. 

Have you begun doing this?   

I really do not believe God wants us this 'plugged in'. In fact I know it with my entire heart.  Do you remember the Tower of Babel?  Did not end up well. Genesis 11:1-9

OR what about Sodom and Gomorrah? Genesis 19 
There was a lot of evil weaving through the lives of folks back then. I often compare this to today in America. We need the great escape ready...but we cannot. We must live through what is ahead and stay the course. God will direct us when the time comes. 



Follow the Spirit of the Paint
“Then the Lord rained down burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah—from the Lord out of the heavens.  Thus he overthrew those cities and the entire plain, destroying all those living in the cities—and also the vegetation in the land. ." Genesis 19:24-25
