I woke up yesterday a bit early with a line in my head--it was nothing remarkable in itself:
"At my best, I come to You with eyes that are open."
A little later in the morning I added a second line:
"Morning has called me up and Your will has spoken."
I have a young high school daughter with the voice of an angel who is a developing musician. She has written a couple of songs and recently joined the adult choir at church. I thought right away that I should write the line down and expand it into a full set of lyrics to which my daughter can write music.
I wrote three stanzas yesterday and although it is still very rough, I gave it to my daughter and she is working on the music already. We'll see what we come up with.
I got this morning's Bible verse email a short time ago. (you know you can sign up with a number of organizations that send you a daily verse -- kind of nice use of technology!). The verse I received was this:
"I keep my eyes always on the LORD. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken."
Psalm 16:8
The beauty of these scripture messages is that many times they seem relevant and so helpful with what you are doing or going through. The Bible is like that regardless, it is so rich and so encouraging.
