30 Days of Hearing God, Days 9 and 10
I woke up this morning feeling groggy and a little overwhelmed with all I need to do to prepare to leave for two days. We are taking the kids to an amusement park/water park and staying at a campground for a night. For a girl who was raised in a camping family with seven children (!), this is really not a big deal. We used to leave at the end of May and wouldn’t return until after Labor Day. I should be able to pack for a camping trip with one hand tied behind my back.
And for the record, not a DAY goes by that I don’t want to call my mom (deceased) and ask, “How in the WORLD did you do this every day?” My mother was a super hero.
But I think the combo of coming off my medication and not yet having my morning coffee made my plight look worse than it is. But I am wondering how a girl dealing with the withdrawal symptom of dizziness navigates water slides and roller coasters. This ought to be an interesting couple of days.
My husband looked at me walking through the kitchen and said, “Good morning, Honey?” Like it was a question. God bless that man.
So I headed out to the deck with coffee and Bible in hand. The two holy mandates for productive Bible study.
“We proclaim him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ. To this end I labor, struggling with all his energy, which so powerfully works in me.“
Colossians 1:28-29
Ahhhhhh….struggling with HIS energy, which so powerfully works in me. That’s exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you, Jesus for your word. So timely. So true.

Amen on the coffee and the WORD.
Yes, coffee and Bible study is an awesome combination. 🙂 Blessings!!!
I am leaving tomorrow, too, for two weeks to visit our daughters in Chicago. Have a great time with your family.

The worst part of camping has to be packing and setting-up all your stuff. It's a bit like moving!
I needed to hear that exact word tonight. Thanks, sis and have fun!
