I got up this morning thinking I should stay in bed due to this cold I have. However, if I laid there I felt I should be getting up. Well, the getting up won. This cold won’t get better by lying in one’s bed!
I just reread the post I wrote yesterday morning. It is a topic God is having me stay with. Even this morning He is pointing out again the importance of my total reliance on His Holy Spirit in my life. My devotions asked me if I were holding anything back from The Holy Spirit having complete control of me? I’d like to quickly say, “No, I’m holding nothing back.” However, this is a serious matter and one I want to let The Holy Spirit talk to me about as I go through today.
Yesterday was a good day in spite of this cold. Our quartet was singing for a lady I knew 50 years ago. Her daughter was in college with me. She now lives with her son and daughter in law in a neighboring town. She has hospice care and it is just a matter of time. She didn’t remember me nor did she seem to remember our one quartet member who is related to her. However, when we began to sing familiar hymns her eyes glistened and she clapped and clapped in feeble manner after each one. I could surely see she is ready to meet her Master and join her heavenly family for eternity.
Someday this will happen for me. But, until then, I want to be a good warrior for My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
