Finished a one year Bible reading plan that I started last March today – thankful for it – kept me on track through recovering from the June flood and the depression and ptsd and overwhelming fatigue that accompanied that event – things that I never imagined I would ever deal with (presumptuous I know!) – the Word of God is eternal (and don’t take that small word lightly), sustaining, perspective giving, restful and reading it in my beloved and familiar NIV was comforting….my feet are more or less under me now (thank you Jesus) so I am going to branch out into the Message – and listen to the Words of God in my language – looking forward to this (but I’ll know I’ll still be spending daily time in the NIV – because….it’s my bread). I love quiet mornings before the world (my world anyway) wakes up (except of course for the dogs who hear my feet as soon as they hit the floor). Thankfully – once they’re let out and fed – they settle right down and are content to just keep me comfortable company. God is good – greatly to be praised.
