Sigh...Having a great moment

Moments are all we have.  We can look at time as a series of minutes passing by, or moments to embrace.  This moment right now as I write is oh so sweet.  Rosey, my adorable dog sits at my feet, my house is clean (Praise the Lord!), I'm sipping my favorite Black Current tea, a scented candle silently allows me to breathe in vanilla shortcake...fire burning, and best of all - it is still.  There is a stillness that permeates to my bones.  It is a welcome and ever needed moment.  A moment that will be short lived, but embraced to the fullest.  A quiet moment... a necessary moment for survival.  For reminding me that life is full, and how desperate I need my Saviour. 

Lord, it's in these times, when I need to refresh myself in your Presence.  Remind me that your peace is not fleeting, but my portion at all times and in all circumstances. Teach me to hide in the secret of your Presence.  Thank you that you are both for me and in me.  That nothing surpises you.  Thank you that you are my constant companion.  Help me to be light of step and quick to listen to your promptings in my heart.  Help me to not be weighed down with my problems and unresolved issues,  but to eagerly lay them on your strong shoulders to carry.  I willingly give them to you.  Give me your confident peace as I go through my day.

Thank you for this moment.  Thank you for your Spirit that resides in Me.  Thank you that you are very present.

Enjoying this moment with you,

Sue
