listening and looking

 ♪The sun comes up 

It’s a new day dawning…♪

Thank You Father.

I was able to get to sleep quoting Psalm 18:1. And wake up singing Your Truth. Thank You Lord.

(3:56 a.m.)

♪The moon and the stars

Declare who You are♪

Having first seen the nearly half moon in the eastern sky my song has shifted from ♪10,000 Reasons♪ to ♪Cannons♪

(4:11 a.m.)

And would You just look at this? The two planets [Venus and Jupiter] I’ve been tracking for weeks are now the most prominent view. With the moon quite high above. Practically out of sight.

Truly Lord. You fill me with awe and wonder. Thank You for every reminder to listen and look for all You provide. 

(4:30 a.m.)

Mm, yes Lord. Teach me to listen and look.

(4:47 a.m.)

Yes. James 1:19-25. “My dear brothers and sisters, be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry… But if you look steadily into God’s perfect law - the law that sets you free - and if you do what it says and don’t forget what you heard, then God will bless you for doing it.”

Yes Father. I want to listen and look. To You! In all things.

Do all You must in using me exactly as You know is best. I love, need, trust and want You Lord. Thank You for first loving us (1John 4:19).

Thank You Dear Lord. Praise You. Amen.
