Jesus I am feeling a little lost this morning. Argh.
 
So Jesus, what are You doing today? 
Walking by a river.
Cool.
Want to come? 
Okay.
Who am I?
God.
So what about all your thoughts and worries?
I figure if I stay focused on You things will stay the proper size.
So can you do that? 
With Your help lol.
Here's a rock throw it in.

  In the river, the rock is completely immersed by the water.  It becomes a small part of the river bed but pretty much at the mercy of the water, moved by it; gradually shaped by it.
Sit with Me here. Where are we?
We are sitting on a boulder looking at the river as it runs by, we can enter it or not, we can drink it or not, we hear it. With all it's strength and seeming endlessness we are not controlled by it.
It's rather exciting being with You there is so much enjoyment, freedom, possibilities.  I like being with You.
Then stay with Me. Tired? Stay closer.  

 Love you Jesus. morning of Oct. 12/11

Well Jesus I made it through this day amazingly well... especially considering I've been on the doorstep of being sick.  I think I managed to stay out of the river and stay by Your side instead. By Your grace alone. :) Have I mentioned that I love You lately? I really, really do.  Interesting, that water holds so many lessons... I like what that book has to say... about the impact of a life lived with eternity as a focus instead of the present world. Nice. I think that was what today was all about.
