Years ago when Buddy was alive I Walked him in the early morning. I enjoyed the stillness and the Sunrise. As I've aged, however, I enjoy sleeping in Even more. But when I awoke early this morning I Determined to go outside. The solitude was striking. Walking by the pond I noticed that the Drake and his mate were back after their Winter vacation. As I poked along I prayed. But I had no requests. I just thanked my Father for what I Could see, The sky, the ducks, the Trees. And God spoke back to me. "I will never leave you or forsake You."* "Trust in Me with all your heart, Dorothy. Don't lean on your weak understanding. Acknowledge Me in all you do, and I'll direct your steps." ** And refreshed, I walked back home to Eat breakfast. *Hebrews 13:5 **Proverbs 3:5,6 |
