I admit it, I love being snowed in. The spiritual question I often ponder about myself is, "do I have to be busy?" for the works of a minister are never done. Do I like always having more good works to do? Am I dependent upon such a life style? So when the snow falls, and services get cancelled, as they did all over King County last Sunday, it was a chance to test my spiritual needs.
I love the continual fire in the fireplace, watching snowflakes fall. I love good music and good reading, and finally really watching the Netflix movie that has been on the coffee table...this is our sixth day of being snowed in...the slower pace is delightful. I even made chocolate chip cookies yesterday...imagine taking time for that...and now my puppy is joyfully entertaining us by throwing around her toys and chasing them. What a delight she is.
I love my ministry and my congregation, but a little mini sabbatical is a good thing. How about you?
