Choose Words To Light Up Your Soul Today; For My Soul Shouts With Joy Unspeakable
When I got up this morning, after walking my dog, waiting on my husband to prepare breakfast, I opened the curtains to my bedroom, and, Oh, what a beautiful sight. The bird house sits empty. I miss watching the mama and daddy woodpeckers go in and out feeding their new born.
The thought of how much I love God and the wonderful ways he reveals himself, dropped a tear from my left eye. I reached for my Bible, because in that moment, I just wanted to bask in his presence even more--I need more and I found it. (more at http://www.Blondie2Book.com)
The word for today is "gentleness". It comes from my book of meditations and prayer. As my eyes fell upon these words: "Take my heart and make it your dwelling place so that everyone I touch will be touched also by you! Written by Alice Joyce Davidson.
Those words brought me to my knees in prayer; "yes, God, that is my desire, that those who cross my path won't have to ask 'Am I A Christian', they will know it by the very essence of you that is within me".
As I continued walking through my meditations on gentleness, I ended up with this prayer--please, you are invited to share it with me--
"Sometimes when life gets overwhelming, I lose patience,
Father. Help me to react with a gentle spirit. When I choose gentleness, my circumstances and attitude improve. Ripen the fruit of gentleness in my life. Amen".
We are still a work in progress. Stay focus. Don't give up!
Be the best you can be. You deserve the best. You can because you think you can.
