It's baaaack! Five Minute Friday with Lisa-Jo at Gypsy Mama. Woohoo! This is just what I needed for my quiet Friday morning...to write. just write. because that's what we do. for five minutes.
Here goes...
Opportunity.
I knew when I woke up this morning that I had missed it.
I had missed an opportunity with God.
You see, last night when I went to bed, I asked Him to use even my sleep time for Him, in whatever way. And when I woke this morning I know He'd talked to me, shared some things with me, and I didn't get up. I didn't record it. I missed that precious opportunity.
But God. My favorite thought...But God...it holds so much promise!
He is so tremendously faithful and so full of grace. I know we will have many more conversations - maybe even at night and now I'm ready. I have a new little notebook next to my bed along with a pen.
I'm ready for that next opportunity, because I know that His mercies are new every morning.
Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.

They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness. Lam. 3:22-23

I have a notebook by my nightstand, too, for these very moments. you won't regret it, friend.

I've been there. And I must get a notebook by my bed! Have a blessed day!
Dear Lori
Oh, why does this sound so familiar! Thank you for your good advice! A notebook and a pen it would be. I am so glad that our Lord knows that the spirit is willing, but at times the flesh is so weak! Nice meeting you at FMF.
Much love
Mia
