Dina Deleasa Instagram – To be honest, I do feel a bit checked out at the moment. And I think that’s okay. I submitted my manuscript, fulfilled most of my work obligations, said no to couple up ahead. And I have found it difficult to do much besides make sure the house is in order best I can and everything in Sienas world is as it should be. Normally I would push harder, but I think there is growth in saying, “that’s enough for now.”
Normally it would make me feel super anxious and upset. As if I was losing momentum, what I have worked for. But I now know the lie in this. I’m okay with taking a break unlike I have before. I can’t see up ahead, but I do not need too. Sometimes he truly just asks us for one day at time, trusting he works up ahead.
Some of you submitted prayer requests, please know I prayed over them this morning. Praying you are leaning into his outstretched arms as I am.
