The Lions Rohrer!

I was feeling a little down last night. I didn’t get in the Word yesterday either. I told myself I would get up early this morning to do it but, of course, I didn’t because I’m so not a morning person. I’d much rather sleep in til the absolute last minute but have just enough time to get ready, make my lunch, kiss my hubs good bye, and drive to work. This morning was very much like that. I went to bed later than I normally do (my best friend is in town this week and she came over and didn’t leave until close to 11:00) so logically I just wanted to keep sleeping (and hit my snooze button!) and therefore woke up late. I was bummed. When I’m bummed or down I tend to feel one of two things: I either feel sorry for myself or just get frustrated with myself…it’s a toss up.

As I left home and prepared myself for another 15-20 minute drive to work, I put in a CD (our cd player finally works AFTER the car battery died and spit out the jammed CD that had been in there ever since we got the car about 1 year ago…wonderful). I put in The Glory Revealed CD which is a compliation of various christian artist . It’s a great CD…all the songs are verses directly from the Bible and sung with song. What a glorious idea Well, it’s just what I needed this morning to get out of my rut. I was able to stop thinking about myself (which, admitingly, is hard to do sometimes) and instead use those thoughts to think about God’s goodness and worship along with the music. I felt renewed this morning…much better than how I was feeling last night. God is good. So while I didn’t get to read when I woke up I was still able to meditate on God for about 20 min. Morning drives are good for that sort of thing.

hmmmm…oh yeah and while driving to work today I saw a rainbow!? How strange is that?! Well, it wasn’t a full out rainbow but rather a small rectangle shape that was vertical and to the right of the sun. I have no idea what it was all about but it was beautiful to look at.

It’s almost the weekend!!! My brother is coming into town and we’re all going to the Michigan/ND game on Sat! I’m not a huge football fan but it’s always fun tailgating and enjoying the atmosphere!
