I really do love early mornings.  I love them winter and summer.  Summer best of course.  Winter I love reading my Bible by the fire.  Unless there isn't a fire going.  Then my Bible time seems a mix of trying to get the fire going using the least amount of my energy possible.  Read my Bible, check the fire, STILL not going, throw some more paper in there, read a little more.....  Go check the fire, let to much smoke out, set the smoke alarms off.  I can do smoke alarms in a range.  I can get one if I am sorta thinking but if I am going to get that fire going and spend to much time tossing more stuff in and rearranging wood I manage to set both of the down stairs bedroom ones off.  I am to short to stop them once they start, so then I have to get a chair, and climb up there to give me peace again.  DH had a simple solution this weekend, I have no idea why I didn't think of it.  He just shut the bedroom doors!   This morning I managed to do only one and it only beeped about 3 times.  I finally got the fire going about the time I finished my Bible.

I am really enjoying my new Bible.  It is in chronological order.  I am reading 5 pages each day.  I hope my math was right and I will have the whole thing done in a year this way.  It is filled with lots of non-Bible information about the time and the areas that the Bible is talking about.  Pulling in regular history and showing how that matches up with Bible History.  I find myself getting caught up in reading and wanting to not put it down.  I hope this holds through a few of the really dry books of the Bible like Numbers.  I really struggle reading that book.  I have to keep reminding me that God wrote it for a reason.  There hast to be something in it I need.   That I need to pay attention, not let my mind wonder.

Sun has made it up.  God has given us another day!  Now to use it for His glory.  I really have some areas I am struggling in.  I would like to go hide and sort it out, but I don't see that happening.   Maybe it is just I want to go hide and NOT deal with some things.   I know I have to trust in God to help me deal and I also need to work on keeping my attitude open and good so He can flow into me and work in me.  When I let my attitude go south, which it really wants to do I put a kink in God's Holy Spirit flowing and working in me.  I know this,  I really really do, but sometimes it is still so hard to not let stuff get to me and send my attitude south.  My goal today is to keep my balance against what comes against me.  To not let satan knock my attitude off balance.  To stay Christ Centered in dealing with people that are really being used by satan to destroy my balance.  Locking myself in the RV and not answering the door isn't an option, but it sure sounds good!

Procrastination time is over.  It has warmed up to 34F.  I guess I better head out to do chores.  Everyone that reads this have a blessed day!
