monday through friday i wake up around 6:20a.m., throw on whatever's closest to me, ready myself in the bathroom, and drive 15 minutes to argyle to take care of one rather free-spirited little girl. i've repeated this movement day after day, week after week, for 4 months now, and i have yet to pass a morning without an awe-inspiring, God-created, Christ-centered, nature-worshiping-Him moment in the early morning hours of the newly created day.
today was one of my favorites. just as i rounded a slow curving turn, where the tree-lined view opened to small rolling hills and expansive pastures and meadows, just past a white-picket fence, the sun made it's bold appearance right beneath purple streaked clouds that rested upon a vast light blue, golden-kissed sky. if i wasn't driving i would have dropped to my knees and sang out His name right then. it was one of the most beautiful pictures i have ever witnessed, and it was just the beginning of a brand-new, promise-filled day.
sometimes, when i'm surrounded and captured by breath-taking moments such as that, i can't help but feel as though God created that picture just for me. i feel as if i've been isolated from the rest of the world just so my Creator can have a special moment with me. in instances like that, i know i am a precious daughter of a king, a spotless bride to be pursued by His Majesty. my picture only lasted for a few minutes, but in my heart and soul, it will last for all eternity.
thank you, Jesus. thank you, LORD.

i know what you mena, when i would drive to stu teaching (usually with a bad attitude) God would do the same thing for me and it was one of those moments when the Phil Wickham spoke to your soul and you almost cried (except you restrained bc you had makeup on) ... i miss those days. enjoy them for me.
