I'm 'bout to leave. You goin' with me?
Maybe that's why this smooth rock beckoned me on the Deep Creek path.
Actually, it looks a bit like a worry stone. Worry stones are created by polishing gems. This gem is from the Lord who created it. It has been polished by the water that has rushed over it for no-tellin' how long.
Today, it has been used by me to focus on its beauty and smoothness by the One who created it. I started my walk worrying about my lingo.
It seems as God has given me permission to "take that off my worry list"---as hubby reminds me many times daily.
Be anxious for nothing! (nutin') (Philippians 4:6)
Allow who you are, even your locale pronunciations, to be acceptable to yourself......and take it off your worry list.
Even rub the thumb-sized indention of your apostrophe-shaped rock to relieve stress if that helps.....and thank God.
