Well, my alarm went off at 5 am this morning! UGH! Do I hafta get up???? My first thought was that I needed coffee! My second was that today I was gonna need Jesus a whole lot more! Now, I need Him to walk with me every day but today I knew I needed to spend a little more time in prayer and I asked Him to be with us as we resumed our 'real life'. REAL LIFE. I prayed that He would protect us today. I needed Him to protect my heart, keep me in check, help me do all things unto Him. It's so easy to feel grouchy, tired, & short tempered on a day like today.
We have had quite the break! It was long, relaxing, & amazing! We spent a lot of family time playing, reading & just hanging out together. It was a great time to recharge my battery.
It was NOT EASY getting up this morning but ya know what? I had a nice day. Not a GREAT day but a good one. Each time I would feel my 'grouchies' creepin' up I would pray. Just a short, silent prayer. God is good!
For all of you that started your 'real life' again today, I hope it was a good one! I prayed for all of us!
Maya is in bed, fast asleep. My kitchen is clean. I have showered. Jorge is next to me on the couch watching the last college football game of the season (can I get a HALLELUJAH?). We are all safe, protected and happy. Life is good!
It starts all over again tomorrow...Maybe my FIRST thought will be Jesus instead of coffee...
