Spend it all.

This is my new way of life: "spend it all". I am, of course, speaking figuratively. I am speaking in reference to writing (don't "save" ideas for a later writing session- it will never come), say those words of affirmation you are holding back, apologize now (don't save those, spend them) but, perhaps most emphatically, with prayer: spend it all. We only have enough grace for the moment not only do we not have more than we need, but we are also not given less than we need so, again, spend it all. All thoughts that lift our minds to God are gifts from the Holy Spirit waiting to be received and breathed, weaved, really, into our lives. It is only in spending that we will one day see what it is we are purchasing.
