Perspective

Not a lot to post today.  It was definitely a day of rest.  I am so grateful that we are here in France long enough that we can have these types of days.  I don't underestimate the luxury of traveling this way and I am very clear that we probably won't experience this type of vacation again.  We haven't watched the news or read a newspaper in almost two weeks---I have absolutely no idea what is going on in the rest of the world--except via Facebook:).  In some ways, this is a very disconcerting feeling--what if something big has happened and I have no idea?  In most ways, it gives me a peaceful feeling that what is going on in the world doesn't matter so much. As I look up at the clouds this evening, I am reminded that God is truly in control and all the rest is just my own distraction.  So grateful....
