Monday
I’ve had a happy day today. It’s a great blessing to be content and have an underlying foundation of happiness. Not that anything particularly noteworthy happened today to cause me to be happy. I just was.
Mike and I woke up at about 7am. I made the coffee and did my Bible reading. Then I grabbed my laptop from beside my bed and I worked while under the duvet until 10am. Then I got up and put my laptop back on my desk. I got dressed and worked for another couple of hours. It was finally after 1pm before I managed to get to gym, but I didn’t really have time to do a proper workout. I cycled on what I call the ‘armchair’ bike – it really is like sitting on an armchair and it’s just your legs that do any work. Anyway, apart from working up a sweat, I also got to read a couple of chapters of the book I’m reading. I then did the super circuit so got to nearly an hour. After a quick shop, I got home in time for my 3pm Skype call.
After that I went to make myself something to eat. Seeing the washing basket in the kitchen reminded me I’d done a load of washing earlier and I needed to get it off the line before the rain arrived. So I did!
Now with work behind me, dinner behind me, washing folded and tea drunk, I’m under the duvet again with the cat on the bed.
While the wind howls outside and the rain falls, I am feeling for the folk who were affected by a fire in Masiphumelele last night. Clothes, blankets and other supplies can be delivered to Living Hope on Kommetjie Rd.
Exodus 33:14
He said, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”
These are the days.
Keep the smile going.
God bless you.
In His Grip,
