But I can do it for one week ... and then the week after that ... and maybe the week after that ... When I don't check-in, He misses me. Isn't that the most wonderful thought? The God of the universe misses ME (and all of his children)!

Not always, but I'm no longer frustrated because I released the day to Him and He directed it.<br /><br />Great post!Patricia Bradleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03382033674042021556noreply@blogger.com
