In His Presence

February 23, 2022

Thank you Yahweh for being there/here for me. Thank you for your love, for family and friends. Thank you for waking me up this morning. This morning, today belongs to you.

Psalm 16:11 – In your presence there is fullness of joy. At thy right hand their pleasures forever more. 

This morning was interesting: in his presence. Not talking, just being. I think that I want to try during the day and yes I know I’m always in his presence, but you know. What I can say is that I feel good even though I did fall asleep. I had to work to quiet my mind from even saying thank you. Lol, I guess I rested in his presence this morning. Thank you Yahweh for who you are. For your presence over/in/through my life. I’m reminded of Moses, who sat for six days (24/6) in your presence and was transformed. That’s an amazing thought.

Thank you for being here: for your strength and provision for today. ( Lol, I have literally been eating provision for lunch for the last 2 days). Thank you. I love you. 

Facepalm. I knew I was tired last night, but I didn’t realise how tired I was until this morning when I started typing up the entry from yesterday evening  and realised I haven’t even read it! Sigh. Wow. Slept for over eight hours last night. 

It’s funny. Reading over the entry, I said (promised) that I would stop running from titles. Last Sunday there was an election and I was nominated for two positions. What was funny in hindsight, I’m not usually nominated for these positions. It often feels like a popularity contest and I don’t usually vote. What had me cracking up was that I was asked to be/do. Essentially the type of activities I usually plan for my church but now on an island wide basis. The other, while a field I’m familiar with, it’s one  I had to step back from last year. I only accepted one because the truth is, both would require more time that I’m able to commit. 

I pray that we’re able to do what is needed and that we will embrace that being with you more than just sitting in a service. There is pleasure to be had in you. Thank you for who you are. 

Yahweh, I am thankful that you gave me a decent memory. I truly am. We wrote to an agency two years ago, reminding them of lands that were allocated to them more than ten years before. This week I noticed people occupying it and contacted the agency. They were saying that they have no idea of them being allocated lands. The thing is, it became obvious that they did not want to take responsibility to remove the persons. But!! I was able to find a copy of the letter that was sent to them. Whooohooo!! Yes, I am thankful for the memory. 

So, I do like the voice typing but omg! Sometimes the words they put! I said “to quiet my thoughts” but the document wrote “to crack my toes.” At least they got the “to” and “my” correct.
