for your weekend

winston salem north carolina

May your weekend be filled with two long mornings and sweet nights to match. As you prepare for new routines and finish up the old ones, may you keep the door closed tight against anxiety and welcome in only friends who speak truth in love.

As trouble and hardship and disappointments roll over you, as accolades and congratulations and friends high-five you, may you hold on to peace.

Let patience be your new companion while you sit in long lines of traffic, while you wait for the coffee to brew, while you watch her make choices seven shades outside of crazy and there’s nothing you can do. Remember love, receive grace, and be stubborn in the important things.

Enjoy your weekend, friends.
