GOD'S Time

This morning was just like other mornings for me. I enjoy my mornings so much now. Wake up, cup of coffee, let the dogs out, go back to my bed to read HIS word, Praise HIM and pray. Sometimes this takes me about 30 minutes, other times it last for a couple of hours. I enjoy this TIME with the LORD! I wait and then listen to what HE has in store for OUR day. I pray every morning that HE opens the STORE HOUSE of HEAVEN those things that he has layed up and planned for me. That I don't let anything stand in the way of his plans this day.
Many times in my life I didn't even stop to think about the Lord, let alone give HIM any of MY TIME. Heaven know's I didn't have enough of it then, surely GOD knew it too. What did he expect me to do? Stop everything I had planned for the day? All the things that I needed to do? Stop everything(like a stop watch) I remember days, weeks, months, years(and it wasn't that long ago) that I wished I could stop. Stop Time so I'd have more of it. There never seemed to be enough hours in a day.
Suddenly, well maybe not that quickly. I realized that when I spent TIME with the LORD each day all the other things faded away. What was only 20 minutes with him turned into 40 and then 60. Funny thing was it stilled felt like 20 minutes. My how Time fly's when you are having fun with the one you LOVE.
When the Time was over and I would begin my day, I would hear the LORD say,"This is the day that the Lord has made, Now Kim, GO and REJOICE and be GLAD in it". Things didn't seem to be such a strain. I even had extra Time to take a Breath....2 or 3 along the way during the day. God began clearing up things. People started being at the right place at the right TIME. It did't take as long at the store. Wow, I just got the connection between the store and the storehouse. He started giving me the short line. This began happening over and over again. I Praise HIM for the way he has showed me his Mercy and Love for me in this area of my life. The more Time I spend with HIM, the better my life. I could settle for good times, but no thank you, I choose Better Times with you LORD!
