Find Him in the Everyday...


Hey there :)
So, I'm just gonna make this one a quickie, because frankly, I need sleep :P But(and I know I say this every year), but I really do want to make this blog more of a consistant thing, so hopefully this will be the start. I have a hard time with these "just checking in" posts, because I always feel the need to be uber spiritual, or be really poetic when I write...inspire someone, make someone's day, that kind of thing. In all honesty, that can be the reason why I don't blog, simply becuase I feel like I don't have much to say.
But as I was going through my day in my head, I started thinking about all of the little things, the places I went, the people I spent time with, the emotions I felt, the things that I read...and how God can show Himself to you, even in those small things. So, just as a recap;

~ in the laughter of my sister, I was reminded of God's joy
~ in the walk through the woods, I was able to marvel at God's creation
~ in the soft whispers of a reassuring voice, I was reminded of how He leads me on, everyday, even when I'm scared and confused
~ in the busyness and stress of and open house, I was reminded of all that I have, and all that is provided from His hand.
~ in a long awaited e-mail, I was reminded again of what my focus needs to be
~ in reading the blog of a friend, I was reminded of the importance of being in constant conversation with my heavenly father, and how His power is made known in weakness.
~ through strained conversation, I was reminded how important communication is, especially with family, who I love so dearly

So, that's what He taught me today...and it only took me until 11:47 to figure it out :P It is so easy to miss what is directly in front of me, it really frustrates me sometimes :P So that would be my prayer for you as we begin a new day...that you would fix your eyes on Jesus, knowing that He longs for relationship with you, more deeply and intimately than you could ever imagine, and that you would stop and take time to listen for His voice, and notice His hand, in the everyday :) Lots of love til next time :)
God Bless
