The Sabbatical - Day 2

Saturday, February 16.  The night was fitful and without much sleep, no explanation, no real aches or pains, no disturbing sounds or thoughts, just would sleep for a few minutes and wake up.  A good nap today was very welcomed.

I was surprised by the snow that fell over night, had not listened to a weather forecast.  It was pleasant to look at and didn't last long.  I didn't even step outside today, just stayed in and read, contemplated, listening for that still small voice.

The word today from the Lord was about my prayer life.  He reminded me of a time when I was a much better prayer warrior.  I could only agree.  Why, when you know the power of prayer and the blessing that you, the Lord, and those you pray for receive, do you fall back in the a pattern of complacency.  I am ashamed, I have asked forgiveness, I am forgiven, and praise the Lord a brand new commitment has been made on my part.  Thank you Father for all the second chances that you have given me.  Thank you for your mercy and grace.  I love you so much.
