"...When you feel tired all the time and like you’re just going through the motions, getting through the many things on your To-Do list but not engaging with them deeply or enjoying them very much. You don’t remember things as vividly when you rush through them. You feel like you’re racing through your life instead of actually living it. Illnesses are often the body’s way of saying 'Enough already, slow down!'"
What are you missing? Patience might be your antidote:
"Patience asks us to live the moment to the fullest, to be completely present to the moment, to taste the here and now, to be where we are. When we are impatient we try to get away from where we are. We behave as if the real thing will happen tomorrow, later and somewhere else." ~ Henri Nouwen
Paula Gamble loves Jesus...and music, international travel, wind (preferably warm) blowing through her hair while she’s on a boat or driving with the windows open, wearing shorts,
putting her feet up, finding good hole-in-the-wall restaurants, and having a nice glass of
wine to complete the perfect meal.
She loves helping others attend to God's loving and leading in their lives and creatively utilizes her music, writing and communication skills to foster environments where people can abide more closely with God. Paula loves caring for souls by helping people identify and integrate the reality of God in the ordinariness of daily living. One of the primary ways she does this is through facilitating reFresh Spiritual day retreats around the Portland/Vancouver
area.
