I'm off work today (1st day off in 8 days) and don't really know what to do with myself. I don't want to go to sleep because I feel it would be a waste of precious time. I seem to spend more time away from home, then home so it actually feels good just to hang out here right now. It's quiet. I'm the only 1 awake, I have my windows open, and I can feel a cool suttle breeze. I hear the birds communicating with each other and wonder what they are all excited about. It's calming.
Nature is one thing that amazes me. How God put it all together. It's all necessary in the circle of life. He had a plan from the very beginning. I wonder when He put it together if He had ME in mind and thought about how it would affect ME. I wonder if He looked into the future and saw me sitting here right now thinking about Him and His creation. Sometimes I can feel a 1 to 1 presence with Him and then I know...Yes He was thinking about me way back at the beginning of time. It's refreshing, yet humbling to know that you are so important to someone that they created you specifically out of and for Love. I guess when you think about it, it can be overwhelming. Who really cares for someone that much? Who really loves someone that much? I wonder what did I do to deserve life? What did I do to deserve His unconditional love? And when I look deep down inside I know, it was nothing I did to deserve anything He has given me. It was His grace and mercy that made it possible for me to be who I am and where I am in this moment in time.
I stop and listen. The birds are now gone. The breeze has stopped. I sit here in the quiet of silence and thank God for a moment of peace.
