Cold Snap *

It's really something to get up at 6am and drive to work in 20 degree weather.

It's fun to bundle up and then head out into the unfriendly cold. Its amazing how much just getting out of the icy wind into the frozen car helps. Still, the nice warm air trapped under multiple layers slowly escapes.

It's interesting how similar that is to our quiet time. Ignore the pressures or problems waiting to pounce on you, and spend time in fellowship with the Lord. It's kinda like bundling up against the cold. In the Lord, you are deeply loved, fully pleasing, totally accepted and absolutely complete. As you head into your day you are going to face some icy blasts from the less than perfect world we live in. If you are bundled up in the Lord you will be handle the chill. Just don't go to0 long without warming up again.

I don't often spend more than half an hour in prayer at one time, but I never go more than half an hour without praying.
