It was a brisk 27 degrees this morning. Beautiful and bright - the kind of day that poets immortalize in a simple haiku. I immortalized today in my mind by taking a long walk around campus and resting under the trees. I thanked God for giving us Bud Austin, who had the foresight to plant graceful trees to beautify our campus.
The LeTourneau Experience: Days like this make me think back to when I was a student and used to “study” on the greenness of quad, warmed by the sun. Back then, I thought time was so limited – I just didn’t understand the freedom of having a free hour or two during the day. Time when you could take a nap under the trees…or sit on the berm and do nothing. What a luxury. Today, I sit quietly with my husband and we revel in the idea of dusk settling in over us.
How You Can Pray Today: Our LeTourneau community is sometimes too rushed, too busy. Pray that we will take the time to enjoy the little treasures God sends us – like napping under a tree, a starry night or holding the hand of someone you love.
Something beautiful:
“Instantes”
Sólo éste ahora es mío
este momento
el pasado escapó
y no vislumbro el rostro
del futuro.
