Dear Reader,
I was reminded again this morning of the importance of spending time just being with Jesus.

August 24/10
Morning Jesus... so what are You up to today? And can I come? Ha... I guess if we are still holding hands I get to follow You :)

Wanna just be together for a while?

I want to give You my all today. My heart and soul. My mind and strength.
How are You doing today Jesus? I don't think I have asked for a while... I'm sorry about that. As we sit here why don't You lay back and rest Your head on my lap. We will watch the sun rise together and I will run my fingers through Your hair and whisper my love for You. Close Your eyes if You want ... feeling gradually the seeping in of heat from the fingers of light that are piercing their way towards us. I always love contrast. The cool of morning forgotten in the touch of sunlight. The tree that is winter dead lit up in a wash of golden light and transformed into such a breathtaking sight. Most of all, when You redeem something good out of our darkness within... whether it be hurt and wounding ... or our train wrecks of decision and actions. I massage Your head and inwardly I am struck with that... 'who am I to love my God , my King?' which makes this an even bigger honor. You reach up... taking one of my hands in Yours. Your eyes are still closed but You smile as You hold on and rest our hands on Your chest. I love You Jesus, I love You. I am very aware of Your breathing... the rising and falling of Your chest. I feel so very close to You.
