Good morning, Father! Thank you for interrupted sleep. I know that sounds a little counterintuitive, but it worked soooo well, that I am grateful for it! Thank you for good work and concentration during the day yesterday, a pleasant evening off watching movie trailers, one movie, and some reading. Thank you for a few hours of sleep before I was back up again, with words for my HSL color book in my head that I just HAD to get up and write down before 5am this morning (LOL). Thank you for another hour or so of sleep just a bit ago, then waking up with even MORE clarity about some things on my site — so I woke up excited and ready to get back to work AGAIN — twice in one morning, hahaha! My Mate is snoring pleasantly nearby, having stayed up quite late himself. The peaceful sound and the warmth in my heart, mind and body makes me feel like one of the luckiest people on earth! I am motivated, I have clarity, I have energy, I have time, and I have ability. I have people who love me, a God who protects me and provides for me, and even my children are safe and of good health. What more could I ask? Well, please bless my beloved ones and the readers of this little prayer blog with your PEACE, Lord. Give them a taste of the joy and security you provide to those who put their trust in you. Call them, Lord — and give them the humility, the wisdom, and the courage to FOLLOW. Remember how prideful and stubborn and frightened us little humans tend to be, and have mercy upon us, helping us to lose our lives to you — one baby step at a time — in order to find Life. Amen. Thank you, faithful Shepherd!
