Today I am sitting back at my desk at home with the sun streaming through the window. I am finding it hard to stay awake and ready to stop fighting it and just take a nap. But I wanted to write this out first - then I can sit back and close my eyes - take in the warmth of the sun:)
It
really has been a beautiful day today. I just got off the phone with a friend.
Life for her has become very different over the last few weeks. You see she
moved - she moved away from all that she knows - everyone that she cares and
loves. But she is a remarkable lady. She sees Gods hand and knows that He has a
purpose and a plan.
She is
in the process of setting up her first house and it is exciting to hear where
she is going to put all the nick knacks - that she will have a separate room
for all her sewing stuff. All these things put a smile on my face because I
know this is God’s special provision for her. Something she can call her own.
But
you know ... still don’t like it. Still would much prefer that she be 15
minutes away. Still wish she was sitting on that piano bench - still wish life
would go back to the way it was. Yet I know that no matter how hard I wish for
it - it won’t happen. Guess I have to trust that someday that hole won’t feel
quite so big.
You
know ... it’s nice to have that reminder that someone is waiting for me in the
overstuffed chair. So if you don’t mind … think I’ll go crawl into His lap for
awhile - He always seems to know what I need.
And by
the way....
He
knows what you need too
