Dear God,
It's a Sunday morning as I write this. My girls are sitting in the living room coloring. I really was/am craving to sit outside in the gloomy, rainy morning and simply write or read but they won't allow that. They would want to come and until now i wasn't going to include them ! But im feeling in my heart i'm sure that would be wonderful quality time with and for them both. We all win.
Honestly it's been difficult finding a moment that quality time for them + me and then for myself with myself. I can honestly say that I've been distracting them and me with screen time. I am going to change that though! I've seen and heard others say many times "kids don't play outside like we once did" and I'm just now realizing it's because of us, the parents we don't let them be or play outside like we once were allowed to. Having since come to the realization, we have transferred ourselves + activities to the backyard.
I love the life you are allowing me to live God. Ups or downs, it's all beautiful. I'm truly so grateful. Today I read in Genesis 28:16 " ... Surely the LORD is in this place and I knew it not."
It made me think of how in any and every situation you are here and there. Not here OR there. YOU are the GOD of the heavens and the earth, you are everywhere in every moment.
Therefore, you are HERE with me. YOU are where you are needed. Thank you. Thank you because where you are, is Holy. Which makes here, Holy. In turn - makes me appreciate every moment THAT much more. Even the hard times.
I feel like I can't say thank you enough for everything you do and provide for me My Lord!!
