today i found myself at school, teaching my students, but not really there. my heart was still in my secret place with my Redeemer. i found myself under the tree, gazing out into the lake, with the gentle breeze moving my hair across my face. i found myself taken away with Jesus, just singing a love song to Him, that only He could appreciate. i found myself still feeling His gaze upon me. i can still see the ripples on the little pond. i see the butterfly that blessed me, as i sat on the bench. as the butterfly fluttered around me, i felt as if God was winking at me. i saw the little frogs jumping from spot to spot.
i felt the presence of the Lord more than i have ever felt Him before.
did i actually teach today? my body was present, but my spirit was staring into a sky full of stars, and a moon that was unbelievably bright.
i wrote before we went on the retreat that i envisioned Jesus and i sitting underneath a tree and sharing together. there was no way to imagine what an life altering experience this encounter would be. what i shared with Jesus in our secret place was nothing short of miraculous.
You overwhelm me. Why You love me so much i will never understand or comprehend. You amaze me. Thank you for your kiss.

You just brought me to tears. Thank You for this. It really reminded me to take a moment and be with my Saviour.
Oh Ya, Happy early birthday. How young are you going to be? I won't tell anyone.
I will be 41. A very young 41.
