He Walks on the Wings of the Wind

Just a breeze is stirring
and He is in our midst
passing by unhurried
He walks on the wings
of the wind.

You make the clouds your chariot;
you ride upon the wings of the wind.
Psalm 104:3 NLT

Celebration

It’s not your Face that I can see
As I sit beneath the trees
It is your Voice that calls my name
In the gentle breeze.

Saying I must look for you
At the heart of Your creation
In the gifts each day that come my way
Making life a celebration!

Great are the works of the LORD; they are pondered by all who delight in them.
Psalm 111:2

Getting Up Early

For several weeks now I've been getting up early. This morning I was awakened by thunder around 4:45 a.m. My first thoughts were of You, my Lord and my God. Sweet Jesus, only You can awaken me feeling refreshed after only four hours sleep. Did I mention I went to bed at 1:00 a.m? This is very strange to me as I normally require at least eight hours sleep.

The house is quiet at this time. Lord, I believe this must be an answered prayer. Michael C. and I are now sharing our home with our two adult daughters. While this blesses my heart it doesn't leave much room for quiet time or a quiet place. Rising and shining at 4:00 a.m. provides the quiet time I need to be with You.

Mark 1:35 in the New Testament says, "Before daybreak the next morning, Jesus got up and went out to an isolated place to pray." Lord, you needed quiet time with the Father just as I do. Thank you sweet Holy Spirit God for stirring this need in my soul. I love you, Lord. Or as Beth Moore shared, "I love you, too, Lord." Because, after all, You did love me first.

To God Be the Glory! Amen.
