"The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places;  Yes, I have a good inheritance."

Psalm 16:6

Though there are many things vying to steal my focus, and problems will always come, arrows to be dodged, I choose for these moments to pause. 

To look around.  See the children all home?  Everyone content?  Bellies filled with home-cooked dinner.  No homework on this Friday.  Oldest strumming and singing his guitar.  Rain falls outside.  The house so cozy and safe.

I choose for these moments to savor what truly matters.

Hold onto what is dear.

"Let your conduct be without covetousness;  be content with such things as you have.  For He Himself has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you."

Hebrews 13:5
