God’s Word to You is Matthew 11:28-30
28 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
I’m sitting here in my recliner and Dawn is in the other room. I’ve prayed this morning and read the Word as well as other normal things I do each day. Those include taking morning meds, making coffee for us both, letting Indy out and checking the pool and yard and other things. Funny how being retired can be so relaxing but my mind still keeps going. And keeps my body busy.
But this morning as I was ready to share a small portion of the things He allows me to see I knew that if I sat in the recliner and leaned it back that Indy would hear and come jump up in it with me. She likes to be with me and lay with her head on my leg and rest there. I think if I slept here at nite she would stay the whole time.
She just likes to be with me or Dawn. And yeah, maybe Dawn a bit more.
It brings me comfort to know she loves us so much. It brings me warmth to know she desires to be near and that my touch makes her be at peace. It brings me love that He made each of us with the need to care for others, need to be cared for by others, need to give love and need to receive love.
Today we are going to go join the crowd of people shopping for crazy bargains in a crazy world. It will be more adventure for us and if we find things fine but if not that’s ok too. We will go to a few stores, have some coffee and fun. Then tonite time with family with food and a movie. And probably more time in the recliner with Indy.
How blessed are we?
And you know, how blessed are you?
You can do the same thing as I do.
For thus said the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, “In returning and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and in trust shall be your strength.” Isaiah 30:15
You too can know your Creator, talk to Him, offer your trust and love and rest in Him to start your day, walk thru your day, face the world and always come back to His love, rest, arms and home.
May this season of Holiday be a time of rich blessings and may the biggest blessing be knowing Him more.
me n’ God love ya
