The Black River is a journey in faith. It delves into an exploration of life: from the calm, clear waters of the good days, the mundane, to the swirling eddies and deep waters of issues that face every one of us.

Pause For Thought by Susan L.
There was a major decision/realization made yesterday. I often need more than once to fully understand a lesson the Lord wants me to know. It's okay if I should miss a blog once a week. It's not a failure. It's not a "performance" problem. I don't need to feel guilty for not having lived up to some kind of imaginary obligation. If I'm pressed for time or too tired to write, that's okay.
It doesn't have to be the same day every week, this day of rest. It can be a floater holiday, taken if needed. If I choose to write every day, that's okay too. In this case I get to make the rules. Or a lack of rules might be a better way to put it.
Commitment was never meant to be a burden. Dedication was never meant to consume us.
Thank You, Lord, for those last two sentences. They are freedom words.
"You have dealt well with Your servant, O Lord, according to Your word. Teach me good judgement and knowledge." Ps 119:65
