HIS AGENDA

This morning as I was sitting outside in the sunshine, I raised my arms up crsscross over my
head to keep the glare of the sun from shining directly into my face. I could feel the warmth
and whether my eyes were shut or open I could "feel" a great brilliance from the sun.

I am reminded of Saul of Tarsus who was on his way to Damascus to persecute Christians.. When God's bright light shone down from heaven Saul dropped to his knees and then he heard God's voice. In my Bible reading this morning I read in . Acts 22:6-9 how the men who were with Saul saw the light but they did not hear God's voice. Back in Acts chapter nine I read that the men with Saul saw the light and heard a voice but did not know what the voice said.

It is so important not only to see the power of God in His creation ..such as the brightness of the sun...the thunder and the lightning... but also that I hear God's voice. As I sit out here in the sunlight it is easy to think about all that is on my agenda for today but I must listen very quietly to hear what God has on His agenda for me to do.

  1. I love how you are so "in" the moment and open to wherever the Spirit may lead your thoughts during your times lounging in the sun with the Son. What more excellent way than that to set your tone for the day!
