My Sunday Morning

6/9/2013

    Today is a vacation day for me. I am in Carbondale, Illinois helping my daughter Katie pack for her summer internship. Even though I have a busy few weeks ahead, I decided not to rush home after sending her this morning. I sat down with my visual prayer journal. I appreciated the coincidence that this morning's Old Testament lesson is also a story that will be told at VBS next week. I thought it would be wise to sit with that story for a while.
    I took a picture to let you see what I heard. Even as Elijah was telling the widow to trust God that her jug of meal would not be emptied...I also heard that I need to trust God and that I would not be emptied. Emptied of spirit? Emptied in work? Maybe. Yes. Maybe. No. Maybe.
I am trying not to get stuck on the "answers" but be more comfortable sitting with the questions.

    Later I plan to take a hike in an area state park: to surround myself with the songs of birds and the sound of rushing water.
Tomorrow will come in its own time. For now, it is Sunday morning.
