Welcome Dearest Friends to Little Glorieta

This Morning

Good morning Dearest Friends,

This morning the Lord woke me early only after a few hours of sleep. We needed our time together to go over the events in my life. For me to listen to the Lord. To get perspective and things in check. To guide me in coming events. Though I wish I could always say I am obedient to His guidings, but I pray I am learning. This world has so much in it that I sometimes feel as if I just landed from Mars. 

The Lord has blessed us with our little farm, our critters...which are multiplying so quickly I cannot keep up! And our sweet family...which is growing so quickly my head is spinning. My babies are now taller than I am except one. They are brighter and work harder. They are lovely to be with. They have wonderful interests and hobbies. But most importantly they strive to walk closer and closer with the Lord. Even if I don't be all the example as Mom as I should be. They encourage their Mommy daily....and for that I am truly humbled. 

I am not persay(sp?) a morning person, but as my family grows older they become night owls. Ironic...the one thing I have been all my life and am becoming less of they are becoming. Even my Dear husband who fussed at me for years for staying up too late!  He is now up later than me most times!! But as time goes on, living on a farm I love the still quietness of morning. Only the occassional wriggle of our little pup Princess laying next to my chair. As she can't decide whether to go ahead and wake up or just sleep till my youngest daughter gets up. My youngest has declared she is Princess' mother and I am her grandmother!!  How did I become such a young Grandmother!!  Well at least that's my story and I am sticking to it! 

Today has begun early, but it is a blessing to be up early with the Lord. It keeps me in check and remembering He is in control. Not the obstacles or people that seem to not want the best in my life or my family's lives. That He needs my time and my attention to teach me His lessons. That He is trying to help me and prepare me for this day and the days to come. That He loves us and has a plan for our lives. What a great God we serve! He knows our needs way before we do! Amen! 

Have a wonderful day in the Lord and try to find a moment for a still quiet talk with the Lord....He's waiting just for you and He loves you so,
