My daily dosage.

By day the Lord directs His love, at night his song is with me, a prayer to the Lord of my life.

Psalm 42:8

God, I want to praise you for all the things you are teaching me. Holy Spirit surround me and help me to remain in your shadow always. It is late tonight… as I walk over to my children’s room while they sleep and over to my husband as he works on his computer I feel a sense of wholeness, a sense of peacefulness and a sense of belonging. I am moved, my spirit is encouraged and I know that God holds me in his arms.

I recall at the age of thirteen looking out of an apartment window in New Orleans, LA watching the rain pour down fiercely….my heart ached… the rain a reflection of my life. I didn’t understand the things that were going on in my life at that time. I had suicidal thoughts. It was then at that moment I felt my Heavenly Father’s arms embrace me, my head resting on His chest….how I cried and cried that night.  Somehow God showed me He was never going to leave me and that I would never feel alone. I cannot describe how much that night changed me, nor can I describe how I actually felt God’s embrace…I just did. Lord, I know that you remember that night, thank-you, thank-you so much, my heart is forever yours. I love you. I know that you will never leave me nor forsake me.
