No wine, if grapes are not pressed.
No perfume, if flowers are not crushed.
Have you felt any pressure today; have you felt squeezed...?
God is bringing the best out of you. Just Press ON."
Geez louisa, life presses us, doesn't it?!
At the end of the day, I feel gratitude.
For an unlikely friend who knows just the words I need.
For children who nap for two hours.
For my old purple blanket.
For communion and a chance to be made new.
And...sigh...even for the pressure. For the squeezing and crushing and pressing of life.
Press ON.
