Psalm 77:1 - 3

"I cried out to God with my voice -- To God with my voice; And He gave ear to me. In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord; My hand was stretched out in the night without ceasing; My soul refused to be comforted. I remembered God, and was troubled. I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed." Psalm 77: 1 - 3

Day 305 - Peace Once Again

I finally feel rested and peaceful once again. After months and months of hectic pace, harried evenings, and stressful weekends...I feel peaceful.

* * *

I think one reason is because I took a personal day off of work to spend with my children and love on them. I think another reason is that I'm back to praying alone to my Lord, and reading my Bible in solitude. It's nice and lovely to pray alongside my husband or share a scripture and commentary...but nothing beats time alone with God. Nothing.

* * *

I think another reason I feel peaceful and well is that the sunshine is here! After being cooped up inside a cold and dark home, and after spending nearly all spring in drizzling rain...the sun has popped out from behind the dark, gray clouds and I can take a leisurely stroll in the sun's rays or even relax out in the back yard soaking up the sun's warmth.

* * *

So thank you, Lord, for the sunshine and the peace once again. I feel like I can handle anything thrown my way. I think. :) Thank you for reminding me how important my one-on-one time with You is for my well-being. Amen.


"But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength..." Isaiah 40:31
