Tuesday, February 19
Today was kind of quiet. We did talk a short trip into Branson to pick up a few things before the "weather" hits sometimes tomorrow. We are praying that we don't loose power as they are suggesting. Everything in the condo is electric, we won't go hungry but we might get cold. But honestly, it's ok. We are together, we have the Lord and it is only to last a couple of days. No problem.
We also went down to the lake today and walked along the bank. There were several fishing for trout, I loved watching them, this is one of the things on my bucket list is to fly fish. It was cool but refreshing.
Quiet reflection was the order of the day. We enjoy some time without much conversation. The Lord is ever present, gently allowing us to rest in Him.
What are the instructions for sabbatical, I am not sure I know them, I am not sure that we are doing it right, we have never done this before, it is not easy to lay things down, to let go of normal, but I will say we are trying.
I am reading "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" by Johnathan Edwards, and I have to say our worlds aren't much different. I have watched "The Diary of Anne Frank" and was so moved by this I wanted to throw up. I brought some of Larry's poems and sermons to organize and I told him that just by reading some of the titles I was under conviction. I want nothing more than to surrender myself completely, holding nothing back for our Lord Jesus. I am asking him to reveal to me anything, everything in my life that is displeasing, dishonoring to Him. This is my prayer.
