INSPIRASUNS

As you all know, I have a pretty solid routine of sitting with Father each morning and evening. I sit out on our lanai regardless of the temperature and humidity and just enjoy being there with Him. Early in the morning, the birds are just starting to stir and I feel His presence through them. This morning I heard a different bird and yep, my first thought was “There you are Father”. Silly maybe, but, I find myself feeling His presence more and more. I guess that is me growing closer in my relationship with Him.

Each morning I also read a few prayers from a website I’ve come to enjoy. This morning, well, I just had to share the prayer I read for today, interestingly, well, it speaks of Father’s presence with us today. Funny timing, me thinks not 🙂 . I hope this prayer helps you to slow down just a tad today and feel His presence in your life. Have a great day my friends.

Heavenly Father,
Thank You for this Wednesday. Father, we are all guilty of looking so far ahead into the future that we forget to slow down and just be still in Your presence. Lord, help us to not merely try and rush through this Wednesday; rather, help us to linger in You.

Lord, teach us the beauty of resting in You. Teach us what holy rest truly looks like. Beyond just sleep or lounging, we know that resting securely in You forms a peace that goes beyond understanding and provides a true refreshment, and so we pray this day for Your holy rest upon us.

Knowing that each season in our lives holds significant meaning and perfect timing, we can rest assured that You use all things. As easy as it can be to fall into routines and ruts, we ask that You heighten our senses to embrace and appreciate these days. These days are not mundane, for they are Your days that You have chosen for us to live in. Help us to live to the fullest and to rest to the fullest. In your Holy Name we pray. Amen

Psalm 16:11
You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
