Its seems like forever that I have truly been able to be carefree, happy, and most of all relaxed. With work getting busier, and life getting fuller, I just needed a chance to STOP.
And that is exactly what I did. I climbed into bed last night at 8:30 p.m. (yes, it was still light outside) put in the movie Mama Mia (the hubby ran the other direction), and drifted off to sleep for a good night's rest.
I woke up to NO Alarm at 6:00 a.m. feeling refreshed and ready to face the day. With no plans on my agenda, I wondered around our home, picking up things, cleaning, and then around 7ish I decided to go outside and spend a little time with my prayer journal.
THAT'S WHEN IN HAPPENED!
As, I opened up my prayer journal, I realized it has been 13 days since my last entry. NO wonder my mood has been horrible lately, my peace has been turned upside down, and my heart has been so troubled. (I have been praying each day, and spending time worshiping and praising the Lord, but not INTENSE time in my prayers, and really taking time to listen to the Lord.) 13 days!
Yet, I love that our Lord is so faithful, and with a deep breath ....I moved forward.
I spent some much needed time in prayer, worshiping our God, and praising Him for what He is doing in my life. I also caught up on my Bible Reading....woohoo!!) I also found out that Gateway Worship came out with a new CD during my 13 day hiatus.
I absolutely LOVE Gateway Worship's music, and looking forward to all the new worship songs.
I am hoping that this weekend of rest, can really bring peace and a little happiness back to my life. I know we as Christians are not to live on our emotions, but I truly want to feel happy. "I seek my happiness in the Lord, and He gives me my heart's desire. I give myself to the Lord; trust in Him and He helps me, He makes my righteousness shine like the noonday sun."
Have a blessed weekend! And, I hope you too can find the Lord's peace, happiness, joy, and rest this weekend!
Love Ya,
