... oh so tired ...

Dear God,

... my bones are tired ... my eyes are tired ... I need an energy boost ... can you tell it is Friday ... I am feeling very Friday ... if I were to write 3 things in my gratitude journal they would be ... 

• ease of accessibility to new web technology has been a dream this week
• friends that can fly over to visit and hang out
• sunshine and harbor views

 ... thanks for an amazing life of opportunity ... for tired bones and a youthful heart ... thanks for being my always and forever ... 

Love ya always

... reminder ...

... less talk more action ...

Hey there God,

 ... Last light as I was pondering your leading ... I had the sense I had gotten busy and left you in the shadows ... this seems to be a reoccurring pattern for me ... so I need to stay centered on you more ... that means being disciplined and spending more time in your pocket ... this week I am beginning what I call ' the top 10 ' ... as soon as I get home from work spend 10 minutes in prayer with you ... start with 10 minutes and see where you lead me ... I want to get back my God senses ... Thanks Mate ...

Love ya always

... now that's a tortise ...

... what an experience ...

... falling in love with Sydney ...

Hey God,

 ... I have spent the past few days being a tourist in my own town ... loving it ... exploring new places ... seeing what is here to offer visiting families with my bestie and her family in toe ... exhausted but amazed how much good stuff is here to do and see ...

... beautiful beaches with Yum fish and chips ... wildlife parks with a great latte ... Aquarium with stunning exhibitions ... I am falling in love with Sydney for a whole new reason ... really well set up and maintained places to visit ... that make it exciting and easy for parents and children both ...

... and once again am reminded how awesome creation is ...  you are the mostest ever God!

Love ya always

... heart attitude ...

" These people honor me with their lips, 

but their hearts are far from me.

They worship me in vain;

their teachings are merely human rules."

Mark 7 : 6 - 7

... finding my voice ...

Dear God, 

... I have had a bit of a battle this week finding my voice ... my struggle has been with how do I respond in a difficult situation ... and how do I respond when things are out of my control ...

... to be honest God I don't know the answer ... just that I wasn't entirely happy with my responses ... 

... Just opened my bible with my intention set on hearing from you ...  to see Mark 7 :6-7 ... thanks for the reminder ... it's not about the words I use ... it is about my heart attitude ... 

... love you God beyond words ...

Always

Teena
