This morning.

I like to open my window in the morning so I can hear the birds talking to each other and the wind rustling the trees as if to say "Good morning!" I like hearing the cars woosh by and the bugs buzzing around. All of these sounds remind me that the world is alive. The mornings are a time of reflection for me. Itis a time to sit down and remember that the Lord is the creator, the sustainer and the giver of life.

This morning I decided to brew a cup of declicious coffee from the shop (thanks to Michele). As I sip my coffee I am reminded of my blessings...which are abundant. Thank you Lord for this day. Thank you for the sun, the wind, my coffee, my family, Jeremy, my friends and this season of rest. I don't want to wish it away or try to make myself busy. Teach me to love the time that I have alone, especially this morning.
