evening pages
so I am sitting with the Lord tonight and this is what has come to my attention to be praying for myself...
Help me to love what you love Father.
Help me to hate what you hate Father.
Help me to marvel at what you find marvelous Father.
In His Arms tonight, B.

Morning Pages
I am sure some of you have checked my blog and wondered if I had stopped writing. Well, indeed I had temporarily. It is only because of my fall on October 12th that I have not written. You see, when I fell I broke my thumb in 2 places and my whole hand has been in a cast since then. I got the cast removed and the doctor then put on a splint and just yesterday they cut the thumb down a bit on the splint. I can have the splint off for short periods of time but it is still quite painful. I plan on writing more now so keep checking my blog for updates!
Well, enough about me .... and more about Him. I am studying my way through 90 days With Jesus the One and Only a devotional by Beth Moore and loving it. Today's reading was in Mark 1 and I particularly liked verse 4, "Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed."
I find early in the morning with the Lord an especially sweet time because no one else is awake at my house and I am able to find time alone with Jesus. I am working on spending more time with Jesus and less time shopping, eating, and watching TV thus my reason for starting a new day after Thanksgiving tradition .... this year I will spend half of my day on a personal prayer retreat. I'll keep you posted.
In His Arms and loving it, Beth
