Soccer Practice Sunset

I spend so many hours sitting in the parking lots at the soccer field waiting for my daughter to finish practice that every now and then I am able to enjoy a moment of connection with Hashem.  It has been a very long day.  I worked from 6 am to 3 pm and then had time to change my clothes, check the mailbox and email and answering machine before it was back out the door.  It is food for my weary soul to see a sight like this.    I consider it a gift that awakens my spirit and soul and gives solace to my mind.  I set out this evening to find a unique picture for the blog project with Leigh and was really struggling to concentrate and get a unique shot.  This is not what I was looking for but was very inspiring to me.  I enjoyed just sitting in the evidence of the Almighty and having a moment of connection being thankful and awed by His presence.  I am in such need for more and more of this kind of connection in my life.  So much in life just hurts right now that these moments really sustain me.

Kim...that is the absolute most gorgeous color in a picture I think I've ever seen. I want to put that as my wallpaper on my computer.... it almost warms my face as I look at it! I'm so glad to see you writing and expressing yourself and .... thinking enough of me to share it all. Love you!
