Beating sunrise

My sleep was over at 5 this morning. Took time to pray, a personal discipline far too long neglected. My waking-up prayers are fuzzy and scattered, like a morning conversation with a lover. What an affront to believe my Abba would receive them with anything less than His love for Jesus!

Shocking pinks in the eastern sky as I read in 2 Samuel, with low clouds shuttling across the sky in perfect time with one another. My morning coffee was good.

The day will likely be concerned with loose ends and their tying, how many and which. I could easily have enough work to carry me through Saturday, but unfinished tasks are not callings simply because they are unfinished. May I be called to His work and rest in His love, both in their measure.

happy2beso is here in Seattle this weekend, interviewing for a Residence Life Coordinator position at Seattle Pacific. I pray her time is fruitful and rich, and look forward to meeting her tomorrow.
