It's 58 degrees; winds-3mph; clear except
for few clouds on the horizon, flannel shirt on and light blanket in hand,
quiet, peaceful and just this side of heaven. No haze, no fog, clear
vision. What are the people in the city doing today!?
Wow I've been anxious for a morning
like this to show up so I could sit outside. Here it is. As the sun
starts to rise the birds start to pick up their chatter, a few cattle
low in the distance and a batch of crickets are still chirping. What a
fabulously fabulous morning.
The first real noise is the diesel
engine sound and rattling of the school bus coming down the lane. Poor
kids, how early must they HAVE to get up. What a long day they must
have! I can see the lights of a few cars start to hit the highway.
Folks off to work or farmers out to their fields and check their
livestock.
For me it's going to be a lazy day at
home. Oh, wait, that's most days isn't it? Internet guy is coming
hopefully. It won't have to be DAYS later before I am able to post
now. That will be great. There's been little internet work in the
last 30 days. It's been a bit challenging to find a Wifi spot in the
little town I live in. I've been hanging out at the library and
McDonalds to do any internet work. No “internet cafes” or cute
little hang outs or Starbucks around here! But I've managed. No
withdrawals or panic attacks because I can't get to the internet. My
iphone has helped but you know it's easy to get WAY up on your
internet usage with that. They send you a threatening note, even
though you have unlimited access, to “stop that or else!” So
today is the day for my own internet finally.
Tonight I'm starting a woman's Bible
study class. It'll be held at a small church in another small town
close by. It'll be great to meet some other women living out here in
the country close to me. Hopefully I'll meet some new friends or
rekindle some relationships with some old friends. The study's about
hearing God speak to you. That's exciting.
We're just going to hang out here and
enjoy, listen and watch, and wait for the first humming bird. Oh!
It's 6:59am, there he is, gotta go!
“Lord, heighten my spiritual senses
to see that which is not visible, hear that which is not audible,
sense that which is not tangible, believe that which is unbelievable.
Teach me to sort through the noises of
this world to hear and discern your powerful, wonderful, pure
precious voice.”
Encourage one another...continuing the
journey on fresh paths.
