Good Morning!...


I came across a verse last week that brought this home to me; "Let me hear of Your unfailing love each morning, for I am trusting You.  Show me where to walk, for I give myself to You!  Psalm 143:8

How do your mornings start?  Mine usually start quietly, but good.  Although I am grateful for each day, there is always a little hint of sadness as I leave the comfort of home.  I guess I am a homebody.

I could be a very good Dorothy from the wizard of Oz.. there's no place like home ( I know that I've talked about that before), but in the leaving there is also the anticipation and joy of coming home.

We always say things to each other like, "Be Careful",  "Hurry home,"  "Love you,"  "Take Care",  "God Bless",  when we are leaving.  After reading that verse, it is like God showing us His unfailing love each morning.  Those words of Goodbye in the mornings are like blessings sending us on our way, reminding us of the love that God gives us through each other here on earth, that commend us into His hands throughout our day.   From now on, I will try to think of them as "Farewells with a purpose!"

.... and maybe, leaving in the morning isn't so bad, when I realize that I am sent off with a blessing, and a promise of His love, and at the end of the day,  there is still...no place like home. 

Thanks for your unfailing love each morning....and for the Journey that leads me home each night.
