"Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning,
For in You do I trust;
Cause to to know he way in which I should walk,
For I lift up my soul to You"
~Ps 143:8~
Dear Lord,
This is the best July 1st I've seen since 2002. Have I remembered to return & say thank You? I mean really Thank You.
I don't want to be like the 9 You healed that never returned to say Thank You Master. I want to be like the 1 who remembers, before oskipping off to enjoy the gift, to return to The Giver. . Return to look into Your eyes & remember You, hear the echo of the day You called me by name, told me that You love me.
I knew that day You were strengthening me to face something ahead. Today, I understand. Today we stand here on the other side of that great valley,. . . together, me & You, hand & hand. Because of You, I survived. I'm healed, whole, wiser, stronger. Just look what we did!!! We did it!!! We made it!!!
And today, You let me know, I'm ready to celebrate life again, ready to enjoy what lies ahead. I feel like a little girl letting go of Daddy's hand to play on the playground, trusting My Father is always close, watching over me. You whisper, "You're ready, now go" . . . .Stay close, Jesus, enjoy this with me. . . .I love You, too, Jesus.
