A Saturday in itself...

ACU football today...games always tire me out for some reason...maybe it's being outside for nearly six hours; that could have something to do with it. We sure did lose, but life goes on.
But, at the game, I sure did treat a friend badly...and maybe not so much in actions and words directed at them (although it may have manifested itself in actions), but in thoughts and a few words to others. And for that, I apologize...it's wrong, and I don't know why I did it...frustration, maybe just being stupid...but it's not right either way. So, even if you did know or not, I'm sorry...please forgive me *Breaks out into song* And to myself: take heed to the word of the Lord:
"
Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life." ~Proverbs 4:23

I think I need to take a Jesiree day...just a day for me to spend time alone and with the Lord, to put aside everything - all the stresses go away (yes, that includes homework, classes, work, boys, etc.) and just have time to regroup. Not to say that I'll be an emotional mess if I don't, Because that's not something that I think I'll let happen (by the grace of God). I just need time to refocus...but finding the time to have time to do that...that's a different story. The Lord will provide.

Tonight my prayer goes out to all you who need that time alone and with your Creator. I pray that you find Him in that place in that moment in time...may peace and joy and restoration to your soul be there.
"
You will keep in perfect peace
him whose mind is steadfast,
because he trusts in you." ~ Isaiah 26:3
And, for my friends who are mourning, hurting and just having trouble standing, let God be your strength and your song...
"
Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight." ~ Proverbs 3:5-6

Think on Him tonight,
Jezz

"Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things." ~ Philippians 4:8
