Jeweled Breadcrumb #35 : this must be right
When I awoke this morning from a good night’s sleep I was surprised that I really felt nothing…
this must be right
neither electrified excitement
nor foot-dragging second thoughts
today i purchase a new home
neither coming nor going
effort is effortlessness
mind body heart allied
this must be right
this new home
must be right
grace upon grace given
not to be owned
Breadcrumb
When I awoke this morning from a good night’s sleep I was surprised that I really felt nothing… not excited… not anxious… not anything but ease. It is almost shocking, except I am not shocked, that the prospect of spending alot of money (a mortgage that will be due til well past I am dead) and schlepping countless boxes has not stirred my peace, at least not yet! So, this is all I have today. Gratitude. Gratitude for the grace given not to be owned.
Thank you for reading these words, created by grace and the grit of a real human being. Debra Asis

The assignment that brings me to the writing of these words is to unapologetically tell the story of how God nudges, cajoles, drop kicks and masters me to be the real human being that I am … becoming … following God’s Jeweled Breadcrumbs. My daily writing challenge for 2025 is to share the Breadcrumbs with you.
