quiet, prayerful day

Today turned out to be one of the best days i have had in a really long time! This day turned out being a day of prayer for me in an uncertain time. There are decisions that we face on a daily basis: to brush our teeth or not, to go to work or not, to be lazy or productive, etc. and we usually choose the 'socially acceptable' or 'right' choice. However, there comes times when there are choices to be made that there isn't an obvious choice to just mindlessly choose. We have to pray, pray, pray, LISTEN, and pray some more. Today, i found myself in that situation where i literally had all day to pray about some decisions.

Also, i had all day today to be grateful for what the Lord has blessed me with. A beautiful family, fabulous extended family, and a handful of friends that are there no matter what, will pray for us, believes in us, and just loves us.... even when we are 'dirty'. Today has been, i guess i would say, nice and quiet. A peaceful quiet, one where you hear the whisperings of the Lord and know you have heard His voice. Where you feel the brush of an angel's wings on your face and know that you have experienced His presence. Where you hear the faint thump of His heart and know that He is reaching out and loving you. A nice day, to say the least!

I hope you find yourself in a quiet place soon and allow the presence of the Lord to rush over you like a mighty rushing wind and know that you, too, have experienced God!
