Day 116 Lord, You are so good to me.

I'm excited this morning.  Yesterday, around 6pm, the nausea lifted.  Praise God.  Oh my gosh, it was like an elephant that had been sitting on me just got up and left the room.  I vacuumed, washed bedding, folded clothes, two more loads of laundry, even pulled weeds in the front until the mosquitoes sent me in.  Still feeling good this morning.  Yippee!!

So, while my mind is clear, I want to share this scripture with you because it is one of those that just stays with me and I keep referring back to it.  I know there is a huge message in it but my mind has been too fuzzy to concentrate.   So now, since I'm lucid today, I have to really work through these few simple words.

"The human spirit is the lamp of the Lord."  Proverbs 20:27

Is it God shining through us?  How is our spirit an illumination or a light for the Lord?  It's like there is something in those words that is important to me but I just can't quite seem to be able to put words to what I think it is.  Please share your thoughts with me if this verse speaks to you as well.  I know sometimes commenting here is a pain so feel free to email me at jedwardss@aol.com.  I guess I'll just keep reciting it aloud and since God inhabits the praise of His children, he'll let me know what it is I am supposed to learn.

I did manage to juice yesterday morning and take some of my supplements, not all.  So, today I'm going to juice again and I'm going to paint.  Received another inquiry this morning about a commission so I may go ahead and start on that piece.  Finishing up some more gallery pieces then a commission to finish and one to start.  How awesome is that?  I say it again, God is so good to me.  Probably more than I deserve but I am His precious child as Melanie is mine and Logan is hers.  So wonderful it feels to be a part of His family. 

Precious Father God,
I kneel before You this morning in humble gratitude for the feel good that I'm experiencing today.  I give You the praise, honor and glory for that and I say thank You, thank You, thank You.
I ask Your help today in using every moment to the fullest as I perform all those simple tasks I've taken for granted forever but now treasure each one that I feel well enough to complete.
Lord, I know I am not the only one dealing with this.  Sometimes I forget that.  There are those who are sicker, older, weaker, and without the hope that comes with having You as their Lord and Savior.
I am asking your favor and special blessings on each one of them today.  Please place someone in their life that can show them exactly how awesome Your love and grace are. 
These things I ask in Jesus' precious name.
Amen
