It's Just Me...

So it is 6:30 am on Saturday morning and I am wishing that I somehow could force myself to sleep in. Unfortunately my body has grown accustomed to rising early and therefore I sit outside on my patio this morning drinking coffee, reading my devotional and typing on my computer waiting for the sun to come up. The sky is a deep orange and just down the street it looks like the sun is about to peak over the trees. I have my camera ready this morning...let's just hope those dogs walk by while we are out here. I have to leave the house this morning by 8:30 so that I can run by my office before my 9:00 appointment so we might have to go in before I can film Bailey...
So this morning my devotional was a poem... I love poems but I couldn't relate to this one. I decided to read the next devotional ... 1 Corinthians 13:8 "Love never fails." At the end of the devotional it states "He sees Me most clearly who loves Me most dearly." How true... how could we see the works of God if we could not love him dearly. I pray this morning that I would be able to see him more clearly each day and that one day I could find the 1 Corinthians kind of love.
So I sit here this morning realizing how quickly our lives change. In the past 3 weeks I have experienced a lot of change... change in my family, change in my friendships, change in my living situation, change in my work schedule, change in the way I exercise, change in the way I spend my time. It is amazing how we get so comfortable with routine and how resistant we can sometimes be to change. If I had it my way, all of those things I just listed would not have changed... just because I was comfortable with the way those things were before... but God had a different plan for me and through each of those changes, He has revealed Himself even more to me.
My sister and I talked the other night and I asked her to pray for me and for what God wants in my life. I feel like He is calling me to be somewhere other than where I am but I have no idea right now where that might be. My sister said that I should pray for God to open new doors for me. So my prayer these days are that God will open new doors for me and that I will have an open heart and mind to go where He calls.
For most of you that know me, I love to move. However, in the past 2 years after owning my own home and settling in, I am not sure that moving is really what I want...but I still feel the tug at my heart and therefore I choose to listen.
So it is getting time to go in and start getting ready for my appointment. The sun just came up and is radiant.... I love mornings... I love the beach... I love life.
