Good morning, good morning, good morning to you! Thought I would change it up a bit:) We are at 59 degrees this morning, a little zippity chill in the breeze, (thanking Betty for my blankie) Sitting outside in eager anticipation of the sunrise! Last evening the sunset was amazing and it made me smile to know that my sweet friend Sena was praying for me at that very time! I tell you , it is a wonderful feeling to know someone has me in their prayers each day!
I have just spent the majority of the night in quiet solitude, I went to bed around 3 this morning...nothing unusual...but I could not go to sleep. I laid there for about 30 minutes, tossing and turning...really upsetting my little mini dach as she sleeps by my feet and I kept bumping her in my fitfullness! Not to mention the irritation I was causing Wayde who was trying desperately not to let me know that I was driving him crazy...SO, I got out of bed, got down on my knees and prayed! In prayer I felt that I just needed to go through a lot of things, I needed to get God's opinions on a lot of things, I needed to just idly sit and chat with him..I think by the time I was done, he most surely was wising I had been able to sleep as well..LOL. So another example of finding the rainbow, not fussing about the storm (lack of sleep) just thankful for the extra time with our Father in Heaven (my rainbow)
I feel so much better now, sleepy as all get out, but better. So many things have been dragging me down, so much that I have been bugged by but have not taken the time to define it, filter it, and file it..that is my expression for placing it in the right area of my brain. I tend to get into such a rush sometimes that as many a desk as I have seen in my lifetime, the papers (my thoughts) get strewn all over the place, until the task of filing it all is overwhelming! This morning I am happy to announce my "desk" is clean, everything is filed away and I am feeling so refreshed. I do not look at times when I cannot sleep as a burden, I look at them as Father God needing me to sit a spell and clear things up! I pray that the next time you cannot sleep that you might sit and have a good chat with him, it is amazing what you realize has been weighing heavy that you did were not even aware were a bother! Life is so filled with hustle and bustle, so many things going on all of the time, so much to think about, so much responsibility, I think sleeplessness is our sign that he needs for us to slow down, draw close to him, tidy the mess and relax. May you be blessed this day with peace in heart, calm in mind, and comfort in body! I pray that you will take time to smell the flowers, to enjoy the song of the birds, to breath the wonderful air that is given you and to love life asking these special favors for you in the beautiful name of Christ, amen! Look into the sky and view the painting that God made especially for your eyes to behold and give thanks for all that he does! I love each of you and wish you grins and giggles!
