when a day starts rocky...

You know your day is off to a rocky start when the post you published the night before is still on your computer screen as a draft...

And then the morning... instead of beginning with the usual routine... of quiet and prayer... turns into a list of to do's...

But 95% of it is preparation for ministry...
editing pages promised to another who asked for the blessing of teaching what the sister and I wrote (with His help)...
editing pages to lead the next journey... which takes off in just two days...
formatting a prayer sheet... to share with others...

And I've come to this place in my walk with Him...
where I really shouldn't consider a day rocky...
if I believe... trust... He's sovereign...
and I begin my day with thoughts of...
This day... Your way...

And I also have to consider...
all these to do's... I do for Him... with Him...
Are they part of early morning quiet with Him...?
even when it feels a little frantic...?
and I'd rather sit quietly...?

Some days... rocky...
requires remembering...
He's the Rock...

He only is my rock and may salvation, my fortress;

I shall not be shaken.

Psalm 62:6 ESV
