Turning a Corner and WOW!

Good Morning, God

Last evening, my wonderful husband, Kit, and I were just returning from dinner at a Greek restaurant. I was wanting their rack of lamb. Coming home we turned the corner and BAM! We were HIT with a sunset that overwhelmed us with Your Glory! 

I found a spot where I could park and drink in the JOY that was filing me. Prudent — as photographing while at the wheel is unwise. And I pondered the difference between a slow paced observation of a marvelous sunset — which I have enjoyed many times — and a sudden WHAMO! 

Beauty, lovingkindness, the goodness of our fellow creatures, surround us ALL THE TIME. But, I do not often open myself to notice. I am busy going about my own life . . . filled with my own personal clutter. . . which blinds me. Then I turn a corner and SEE!!!!

It is to laugh. LOOK UP! OPEN MY HEART! LOVE! 

Or maybe it is just to receive? I AM LOVED. WE ARE LOVED. AS WE ARE. EACH ONE OF US. Will we STOP? OPEN? AND RECEIVE? Will I receive?

So Now I am beginning my day with the Morning Prayer of 1) welcoming this new day — accepting all that comes to me 2) welcoming my full self . . . as I am . . . all corners. 3) offering the day and myself back to YOU.
