Morning
“I love you, LORD; you are my strength” (Psalm 18:1).
Morning.
Maxwell House.
Too much half and half.
Calm children who are eyeing the new wooden spoon on the counter.
Freshly showered husband wanting to bless his wife.
His words, not mine.
Upstairs with coffee and IPod.
Chair.
Bible.
Rita Springer worship song.
Whispers of love to God.
Music gets louder.
Out of chair!
Dancing!
Loud singing!
Goosebumps.
Tears.
Sitting.
Psalm 18.
Verse one in prayer notebook.
Written out four times.
YOU are my strength.
You ARE my strength.
You are MY strength.
You are my STRENGTH.
More sitting.
Thinking about strength of God.
Eyes closed.
Quieter Rita music.
Listening.
Listening.
Listening.
Ask for eternal perspective.
Ask for more of God all over house and family and children and marriage.
More sitting.
Soul is still.
Heart at rest.
Coffee is done.
Day is just beginning.
