Hey everyone ...
Jesus is always my starting place ... though sometimes my ego does have a very loud voice and gets in the way.
Whenever my mumble grumble gets out of control, Jesus reminds me
'Hey ... It's all about me'
I seem to get so involved in what I can get out of something, I often forget what I am blessed to give ... this is when the neon flashing lights go off and I need to have a big hang out session with God and realign my attitude ...
How easily I get distracted and forget but also how quickly I remember what it feels like to be near Him.
In a blink of the eye, I remember his smell, his voice, his presence with me ... nothing beats a good worship session to get back in the zone ...
Today I wrote a list of everything that reminds me of Jesus and who He is to me ...
- amazement
 - wonderment at creation
 - rainbow miracles
 - my one true constant
 - lush green grass
 - sunshine through the kitchen window
 - good coffee on a winters afternoon
 - laughing till you cry
 - feeling someones heart breaking and handing their hand till the pain passes
 - feeling exhausted
 - showing me, myself at it's worst
 - showing myself at my best
 - words that rhyme and make me smile
 - the emotional roller coaster of lack and abundance
 - the sense of reassurance you get when praying for some one
 - the cloak of invisible protection
 - a crystal clear pure voice singing on it's own
 - how the tides ebb and flow all over the earth
 - the birds chirping to greet the sunrise
 - lightning in the distant sky and the crack of thunder
 - honeycomb pieces in vanilla ice cream
 - the echo that comes back in a valley
 - the genius of how the human brain works
 - the unknown in life
 - seeing the good come out of something bad
 - walking past a bakery while they are cooking
 - the smile you see on someones face, when they are glad to see you
 - the ability to learn to walk again against all the odds
 - playing with your puppy in the backyard
 - the colors created when burning different minerals
 - the courage people show in difficult situations
 - He is my everything ...
 
I am truly blessed to be a child of God ... a gift available to everyone!
My list just goes on and on ... What is your glimpse of God?
Let me know ...
Be blessed and be a blessing
Teena
