My Lord,

Happy Beautiful Monday.  Thank you for this precious day and gift of life.  I truly, truly love and appreciate what you do for me and your continued presence in my day to day comings and goings.  There are many times when I move about in my will and my somewhat old habits, so to speak, but I pray that you look to my heart and see my deepest desire.  That my Lord, is to please you and be available to the whispers of your voice. 

I do have a tendency to isolate myself from the world...only because it's so loud and so busy.  The sacred space that you've given me calls me home in the sweetest way possible, which makes it difficult for me to just "hang out or hang around those of this world."  Yes, I know that you need to use me in ways that are uncomfortable to me and outside "my" way of thinking, but most times, I long to be in fellowship and in your word. 

I do love walking along the shore, reading and writing poetry and also having a great meal with friends and family or even alone.  But it's not about me. Right?

Yesterday in Church, I sat next to Melanie and I laughed because she switched seats on me.  She said that each Sunday she likes to sit someplace different in order to meet new people.  How incredible that you answered my prayer in a BIG way.  We are just finishing up Daniel in our Wednesday night bible study and I met a couple who is about to start the book of Daniel in May.  WOW! I was just saying to you how difficult the study was for me and how I wished that we could start over and include a video.  How awesome that this couple's teachings include a video.  YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Lord, sometimes you answer quickly and sometimes you simply say, "Not yet, my sweet child. You're not ready."  Either way, I love and trust you.

I was listening to Yolanda Adams on the way to work and her song was saying how she just needed to hear one word from you.  I said to myself that if I could hear one word from you, that it would be to "wait."  I know deep down in my heart that you are preparing something so special for me and that alone causes my heart to flutter with anticipation.  Psalm 37:7 Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him;...

Eternally yours
