Well today my trip to Arizona ends. I finished my conference and my visit with the family. I have to admit though it is hard on a "Mimi" (that's my grandma name) to say goodbye to a precious four year old. I just hate it because my grandchildren all live a distance from me. I have two in Texas within a two hour drive but the others are in Kansas, Minnesota, and Arizona. Not good.
But part of life is watching your children grow up and then marry. They make lives for themselves and that often means moving. Thank goodness for holidays and time for the family to come together. I love it when they come but the hard part is saying goodbye when they leave. It is hard on the heart.
It made me think if the Lord often feels sad when we spend time with him and are so close we can hear His heart beat and feel His presence. Then we get busy and our time we devoted to Him, dwindles. For some they walk away all together and never spend quality time unless there is an emergency. How He must miss us. He longs for seeing us and hearing our voice.
Lord, thank you for seeking us and missing us when we are absent from Your presence. I have a heart that is grateful and full of adoration for You, my creator. Help us all to never cause you sadness by being away from You. Amen
So my journey to get healthy has begun and I am choosing to make that great spiritual health too. I know the 'broken' areas of my life are only waiting for me to be fully submitted to my God. I have placed my total trust in Him and am confident He has a great journey still ahead. My job....keep stepping. I'm not settling for less than His very best for me!!
