Manna: A lightbulb moment

Sunday, January 20, 2013

church today----ah, i can breathe again---such a refreshment
didn't take communion because of this lingering cough, but enjoyed the service
great music, including one i'd heard there before 'in Christ there is no east or west'---gorgeous
enjoyed having 5 of my brood with me
there's a potluck next week---signed up for 2 things---not sure what those 2 things will be, though
reading patricia highsmith's mr. ripley mystery series---highly recommend
got something from reading Psalms today that hadn't ever hit me before
was doing my daily office before church and i realized that God really does want to have a relationship with me
He didn't just put us here to muddle along by ourselves
duh
some spiritual truths are lost on me until the appropriate time
that's been happening a lot to me this month
reading the Psalms daily really has been an eye-opener
it's messing with my head, but in a good way
sometime i admit to feeling like i bug the Lord when i ask for things or get frustrated over and over
don't get me wrong, i know a relationship with the Lord is necessary---just hadn't admitted the magnitude of it until this morning
He wants me
really
and i find that absolutely amazing
asking for help is easier now because i deeply know that He *wants* to help, and always has
