Back in the Saddle

 

“Let your eyes look directly forward, and your gaze be straight before you.” Proverbs 4:25 NIV

I had a great vacation everyone. The hardest part is preparing to get back in the saddle. According to the Cambridge Dictionary, it is defined as doing something that you stopped doing for a period of time. “Work.” It felt great to just let it go.

The Idiom, which is rooted in horseback riding, specifically the act of getting back on a horse after falling or being thrown.

It also represents overcoming a setback by shaking it off and getting back on task.

My favorite parts of the trip were the views, beach. And yes, I did put my toes in the cool water and warm sand. I also enjoyed the good food, seeing family, and shopping for sea turtle stuff.  I don’t know what it is, but I just like sea turtles.

There was no hurry up and go, it was just taking our time and enjoy the view.

God I just want to say thank you again for My vacation. You took us out their safely and brought us back the same way. As I prepare to get back in the Saddle, I do so with a thankful heart and clear mind.

Remember friends, we are each other’s keeper and the only time we should be looking down on someone is when we are helping them up.

Friends, I bet you can guess what my topic is going to be about this week. Yep, Vacations. It is that time again for my husband and I to take a trip to my favorite place, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

It’s an opportunity to pull back from everything and just enjoy what only our God has created Nature. The beautiful water and sandy beaches, it’s nothing like inhaling the beauty around us, especially when we take the time to just look.

What do I love about Myrtle Beach? Beaches (sand between my toes and the water is chilly on my feet at first, but then it feels fine), plenty of delicious food everywhere and the surrounding towns like Georgetown (Gotta hit Eve’s, she has the best Oxtails on this side of heaven y’all), Lots of live music (all on the boardwalk and they have some great Mexican corn), and let me not forget all of the amazing beach shops.

Lord, I want to thank you for down time, to just be able to take a break as I look at your awesomeness. Thank God for Vacations.
