Feeling Dry

I woke up late this morning. When I rolled over to look at my alarm clock I realized that we had to be out the door in 45 minutes. That meant getting myself up, dressed, and ready for work and my 3 daughters ready for school. I rushed around pulling out clothes for the girls and grabbing them poptarts so that I could go get dressed and brush my hair. When we flew out the door only 3 minutes late, I realized that I did not take the time to read my morning devotional. By the time I got the kids delivered to where they needed to be and myself to the office, I was feeling stress build up in my neck.

Once I arrived at work I had to jump on a conference call then head to the bank... all before 9:00 when I had to unlock the doors for customers to come in. During all of this time the knot in my neck grew increasingly tighter. When I was finally able to take a moment to breathe, I realized that my sould was crying out for connection with my creator.

I thank the Lord for the internet. I logged on and pulled up the Women of Faith daily devotional and the Charisma daily devotional. Sitting at my desk, I took a few minutes to read those and bow my head in prayer, thanking the Lord for another beautiful day.

How wonderful to realize that the knot in my neck is now gone and I am ready to work through another amazing, blessed, day!
