Hebrews 12:1-2a

"Let us lay aside every weight,
and the sin which so easily ensnares us,
and let us run with Endurance
the race that is set before us,
looking unto Jesus,
the author and finisher of our faith."
Hebrews 12:1-2a

Recovery At Home - Day 13

Memorial Day.

Jim slept 4 hours before waking to self-cath and an hour later at nearly 4, wanted pain medication. Soon after The Gazette was delivered at 4:15, we fell back asleep. Jim got up at 7 and I got up at 7:44 a.m. Probably the first time since May 12 that I slept in past 7.

Today's devotional Scriptures:
"Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God, I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand."  (Isaiah 41:10)

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the Lord and depart from evil."  (Proverbs 3: 5-7)

Hiding
you know I AM
with you
but often I AM
forgotten
You go about
your day
You plan and do
but I AM
not a part
of what you plan
nor what you do

I desire to be

Although I live
within your heart
and have so much
to share with you
and teach you
I AM but a silent partner
waiting
for you to recognize
to acknowledge
My Presence

Together
we can do so much
but you suffer
alone
from one problem
to another
not considering
how much lighter the load
if you would only
look unto Me

I AM
everything
you need
I empower you
fullfillment
satisfaction
joy
peace
yours
in the midst
of every trial.

Today has been a peaceful day. We haven't visited disagreement land too much and Jim hasn't had any mishaps either. We took 2 walks this afternoon. It seems like a vacation day to me - the first since taking paid time off from work and the last as well, since I plan to return to work (at home) tomorrow.
