Time. The Loss of it.

I've found myself, lately, grieving the loss of time. There just never seems to be enough of it.

The lines seem longer at the post office these days, people seem to have more questions about the forms they have to fill out, the supermarket never has enough checkers, people seem to have lost the ability to drive anywhere near the speed limit. All of that in conjunction with the longer and longer mental to-do list that I carry around with me. I contain my impatience, always, because I remind myself that God put all these people on this Earth, too. Not just me.

Then I remind myself that, not only am I supposed to trust that God will provide a job, housing, love and all the necessities of life, but he'll also provide me with the time I need to get things done.

Trust God in ALL things, not just this and that.

One of the Best Devotion Sources...

I just wanted to share with you one of the things I really enjoy and look forward to.

There is a Pastor who lives in Texas, Pastor Kerry. He puts out a daily devotion to an e-mail list. I subscribe to three e-mail devotion lists, actually, and his is one that I find to be particularly enjoyable, uplifting and I learn from each one. A little treat first thing in the morning.

You can see his archives here or subscribe to his e-mail devotions here.

Since it's my birthday today, I thought I'd share one of my gifts with you. :)
