Now, my husband is a cheerful, chipper, early morning riser. Not me. He has learned through the years to wake me gently, preferably with a cup of hot coffee waiting. I move slowly through the paces of getting ready, my body, and often my mind, being tempted to resent each step along the way. Once I heard my husband joke to someone else that my heart "doesn't start beating until 9am!"

Read this as I was getting my 'non- morning' body ready for work...Thank you for a BEAUTIFUL reminder that God does know what is best for us. ("My ways are not your ways, saith the Lord")
Awesome pictures of God's glory all around us.
Have a blessed day!
Thank you, Sue. I hope you have a great day as well. That was a perfect verse, too! I wish I had thought of that one last night!
