Welcome

Welcome to my blog. More nights than not I am up well past the midnight hour. Burning the midnight oil, some might say. I believe it is because I enjoy the "me time". The hubby and the grandson are in bed, the phone is not ringing, I don't have to stop what I am doing to take care of something or someone else. I can watch what I want on TV or not at all if I want. I can turn the volume down or mute it if I want! It's all about me.....and usually God.

It's usually me and Facebook, until all my friends say goodnight and sign off, then it's me and God. We have these talks and He usually shows me something profound.Usually I am amazed at why I never "got it" before. At that very second, I have an "aha" moment, then find somewhere to record it, whether it be on a blog (I've started a few) or journal, (started even more of those), write it in my bible, which has many profound "ahas", or just write it on a piece of paper,that gets put aside and then years later is found to be read again...at just the right moment! An "aha" moment. It all comes full circle. Just like life.

Did you ever notice how people come into your lives at just the right time? Then you go years without seeing or talking to them, then poof, one day you run into them again and you pick up just where you left off. That's how God is. Even though we are not always faithful and loyal to him, He never leaves us. We may not always be thinking of Him or even include Him into our day, but He is always there for us when we call on Him.

Good Morning to you too...

Let me just get it out there...I AM NOT A MORNING PERSON! Having said that, I am, however, one who wakes thinking of God and His wonders and blessings. This morning I slept in, thank you Nick. Once again I was up burning the midnight oil because I could not sleep. I did, however, fall sound asleep in the bathtub sometime after 2 A.M.. I woke in a frigid bath around 3:45 A.M.. I had decided to take a hot bath hoping it would help me sleep...it did! 
After waking, Nick brought me my cup of jo, and I locked myself in the bathroom where I read my bible. Isaiah 40 was what God brought to the table, OR THRONE, (pun intended) this morning.  I often wonder if it is sacrilegious or insulting to God that I read my bible while on the "throne". I had no longer finished reading it, than I heard Nick speaking very loudly and sternly to someone. It was someone on the phone. Let's just say, there was no question that he was not happy with this person. Anyway, the point is....the devil always comes in to try to steal, kill, and destroy...your day, your life, your finances, your health, your mood. Take up your armor of God so that you may be protected. Eph6:10-18
