Had a bad morning!Actually when I was getting out of bed I had prayed that the day be good; but it just took some words to bring out the bad side of me. I don't like being crowded with reminders and requests before I have my quiet time, and this was actually what happened. It was a simple request but enough to invite an irritated and sarcastic comment from me! My, my! I could have bitten my tongue after those words slipped out, but at the same time my heart weighed down heavily in anger at being disturbed! Self-righteousness manifested!
I went on with my quiet time and did what I usually do. I was not quite happy with myself for snapping off so easily and unreasonably! As for the person who had to face my wrath, I was not sure what to do to make it up....Heaviness weighed in as I stood in the balcony,looking out into the fresh rain washed scenery in front of me. I exclaimed, "It's so beautiful!" My heart was overtaken by the wonder of it all. "It's a beautiful morning....His mercies are new every morning...." I stopped at that for I realized something beautiful- His mercies are for me as well, for this morning as well! I smiled....my heart was at peace again. It was going to be a good day after all!
