No Safety Net

Often when I travel I take along comfort items.

Food, especially chocolate. If I'm staying in a room alone, perhaps a movie to watch.

This afternoon I leave for a writer's retreat. Our days have a rhythm of worship, writing time, meals and evening feedback sessions.

I am not taking a safety net. No movies. No extra food, I will just eat what is available. Not even any chocolate. Ouch.

I want to be fully present for what God has for me. I want to rely on God's promises more than a Dove dark promise. I look forward to what will unfold.
