Quiet blessings

This morning I left the house at 6:50 am. Yes, it is Saturday, but not my sleep in day! I attend a bible study at 7:00 am at my church and I am thankful that I do not have far to drive.

My Saturday mornings are always a bit rushed because I wake up just in time to get dressed, brush my teeth and grab my mug and bible books. Today as I rushed out the door I was slowed by an awesome and holy presence. All was silent except for a choir of birds singing in harmony as the sun rose gently into the sky. Peace flooded my soul and I entered into the presence of the King of kings and Lord of lords.

It is a beautiful way to start a day, but for some lazy reason, I won't greet every day in the silence of the majestic cathedral of Gods' creation. I usually wait until the rustling of my early bird granddaughters and their early morning cartoons pierce through my dreams and demand my arousal. Oh what I miss!

Maybe tomorrow I'll find a spot to visit with my Father the King. Maybe I'll change the "maybe" into an "I will!" Would you like to join us? You are invited.

Isn't it wonderful to hear the symphony of birds! I just know that their song is a song of praise!

Thanks so much for visiting my blog Carolynn! I'm enjoying reading yours as well.

God bless you my friend!
