Lucky you!

im sitting here at work, and have a few spare moments so you get to hear some of my thoughts!!

God is really blessing me. God puts desires in hearts for a reason. I have been listening to a hillside podcast over and over. seriously. intense. (thank you louie for the podcasts! i love them) God has been sharing with me that He desires for me to be happy. Living a christian life for Him can still be fun, exciting, and happy. :) He doesnt want you to be miserable here on earth and then happy in heaven. Life is short why would God desire anything less for us than happiness?? complete happiness. :)

As i was driving to work this morning, it was dark. i thought it was prolly too dark for a sunrise, but God told me differently. He promised a beautiful sunrise. ok fine God. through washoe valley it was pretty, but not spectacular at all. i just dismissed the idea. By the time i got over the hill and headed down into carson, God painted the sky for me! it was breath taking just as He promised. :) i dont think ive seen such bright neon lines of orange and pink!

also, i think praying is built in when God makes you. much like crying. He was humoring me with days that i would pray (days with prayer were few back in the day). I didnt know God. I knew there was a God. i knew nothing about anything really. i knew there was supposedly an adam and eve. thats it. yet i would pray. i cant remember what i would say, but it would always be knelt next to my bed, hands pressed together, eyes closed, head tilted up. hehe. i dont know why, God, this humors me now. I sat and talked and He listened knowing i knew NOTHING about him! He just gave me the image of a child doing it because you are just supposed to, and it made me giggle. (almost out loud). hehe. how nice it is now to know Him. i no longer kneel at my bedside. i pray continuously no matter where i am or what i am doing. i love it when God teases me about something. it makes me laugh. its always in love.

i know when i first found Jesus. but i dont know when the first prayer i ever prayed was! do you? i really think it is built into us.

Thank you Lord for entertaining me. its a rough job, but someone's gotta do it! :)
