Sunny Day
Today I felt very tired when I awoke and it would of been tempting to remain in bed but the desire to not be alone and to worship with others prevailed. Again I felt His Presence engulf me and touch me and afterwards a young man shared a message on family, the family of God. His desire for us to be one....how we are a body and each part cannot do without the other. As I sat there I remembered how I would sit alone and cry till a young lady came and invited me to sit with her family and since then I sit with them... Yes when we open ourselves to relationship we sometimes get hurt but if we insulate ourselves from it we will eventually isolate ourselves. Yesterday was hard, I sat alone in my house for hours watching the falling snow, but today I go to a couple's home for a "Super Bowl" party and the excitement of not being alone makes me smile. People will disappoint us, that is inevitable but today we need to choose to love, to reach out, to carry the love of the Saviour Jesus Christ, to be humbled, broken, taught, changed into His likeness and that can only happen in a relationship....with Him and with others.......thank you Joshua for sharing your heart......and Olivia for dancing for Jesus and for us, and Melody for not leaving me alone to cry.......
