Happy Sunday
I love my Sundays. I enjoy the preparation the day before,esp the evening before. Getting ready, doing my best to be ready to enjoy my day with the lord. clothes ready-check Sunday school ready-check house cleaned-check jump in shower-check
God knew we needed to set a day aside. Focus on those blessings of the week. food on the table, roof over my head, wonderful husband, healing, the list goes on
I love seeing the children arriving for Sunday school,telling me all the news from the week before. I am encouraged with the music in the services, the saints sharing how good God is, God's message given to us at the pulpit by the man of God.
Six days a week, we rush around as if there is no tomorrow. I like to keep my meals simple. I choose not to shop on Sundays unless a emergency. After all I has 6 days to buy whatever I needed. Sometimes we get so busy,just doing.
Maybe when we get so worn out,we should examine what we are doing or not doing. I am not one to get up early. Lately I have been waking up between 6 and 6:30 am and can't go back to sleep. I have found a joy in getting up grabbing a cup of coffee and bible . I meet my lord in prayer on our deck. I am able to spend a hour or so, praying and reading the bible. I feel like Jesus wakes me up because He is anxious to visit with me. I have discovered a joy in my day when I start it out abiding with my Lord. Asking the Lord to take control of my day. Knowing nothing will happen that is not in His plan. Asking the Lord to send me too some soul that I can share the good news with.Psa 118:24 This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
