Walking Tybee

Today begins with a quiet awakening, as the sun had already risen and plans to walk the beach at sunrise are dashed. 

Still, the rising of the sun through the bedroom curtains is a kind of walk, as my mind walks through shards of dreams from the night, and now begins to think about what this day will bring. 


Breakfast while I read two devotional sources.  The New York Times, and Becca Steven's "Walking the Path of Justice". 

 


Stevens writes about Job and how he learns that justice must include mystery and compassion; and to arrive at this understanding of justice he looks to the animals, birds and plants. He's reminded we all come from the Creator and the way to gain wisdom is not just by living, but by contemplating the creation all around us. 

As I walk through this day, I shall try to do just that. 

Stevens prays "Give us good companions on the walk."
