a child of god
this is the way, run in it
![]() I have to think that God must be so amused at me. Here He and I are, having come home from an amazing week in Greece with some of His people, and I'm wondering what to do now. I'm struggling with feeling down and out because of hurting my knee and being marooned - not easy to walk far, can't drive for a while - and this time is actually not a difficulty but an opportunity. To rest, to spend time at home, with God and with Ian, to recoup, refuel. And I have to think that God must be amused at me as I struggle to surrender to this time. A friend of mine once prayed for me that I would always have a Learner plate on with God - always be willing to learn from Him and grow. The verse I associate with that prayer is in Isaiah, chapter 50, verses 4-5. "The LORD God has given me the tongue of disciples, that I may know how to sustain the weary one with a word. He awakens me morning by morning, He awakens my ear to listen as a disciple. The LORD God has opened my ear; and I was not disobedient, nor did I turn back." So I say, Yes, Lord! I will listen, I will obey, I will enjoy this time with you and I'm looking and waiting to see what You want to teach me through it. May I be quick to obey, quick to hear, quick to respond to You with all that I am, no matter my physical state. Please Lord, move in my heart and remove the frustration, the responses that prevent me from enjoying this time with you. Consecrate my heart again to You, Lord. I love You and I love this life You live with me. Let's laugh together, today, and tomorrow.
