well ... the sleep was short. Perhaps, this is a good time for prayer
The Presence of God
I can hear the wind from the fan spinning ... just one car zoomed by.
Freedom
Hardly any noise ... it's pretty silent .. I turn off the music - getting distracting. Breath slower ... "the Jesus Prayer" ... "Lord, Jesus, son of God ... have mercy on me"
Consciousness
A drink of warm water ... pause ... less frustrated ... treasure this space ... less burdened ... at ease.
The Word
Matthew 13:44-46 (the message)
"Not just a single act of renunciation ... priority all through our life, every decision we make"
Conversation
"I'm right now an accumulation of the many decisions (big as well as small) I've made ... some were dramatic, nowadays less so but no less significant ... at times more visible ... mostly unnoticed ... sometimes I'm unsure where one decision will take me ... looking back whether through joy or pain ... it's part of the journey ... I embrace the consequences ... I learn again ... I think there's improvement or better discernment ... one thing is clearer ... my sinfulness, my humanity ... your grace and your kingdom..."
Conclusion
some old burdens are still on when the sun rises ... hope to relieve them, and move on ... there are other priorities .. more precious stuff awaits .. Amen!
