First...... and Last

Running in a race. Competing in a talent show. Getting back to the fridge for that last piece of cake.
Just a few things that we want to be first to do. If you ask someone, usually the last thing they tell you is "God's eyes."
I have noticed that so many things get put at the front of our schedules that we forget to put God in there and make Him first. We do everything that is expected of us, we strive to be the best at what we do, but... can you honestly say that you strive do literally everything that He asks you to do, the first time?

Running in a race. Competing in a talent show. Getting off the train.
A few things where we don't want to be last. If you ask someone, they will most likely tell you that they don't want to be last in anything. They want be people to see them at the front succeeding, not at the back where they might as well be failing.
I have noticed that sometimes the one thing that we should be doing first, fulfilling God's plan, is the last thing on our minds....  What makes Him last?


So, I have a challenge for anyone, and everyone... A challenge to make the day to day routine come second. And start making God the first thing you think about. Every day.

A Request

May I come over for a while? I would like to talk to you. It's nothing important, or serious.... Actually I would like nothing more than to just be there with you while you go about the day.... Let me know what you think on that...
I'll be waiting.

Restless.....

I'm so tired...

I haven't slept at all this week....
I feel as though my heart is a hundred miles away. Which in a way.. Is true.

She's out of town this week, and we haven't been able to talk in any way.
Normally I can sleep when she isn't near... Not very well, but at least its sleep. But this week... Not even close.. I feel as though the Earth is just pulling, and pulling, and pulling.... I'm so tired....

Last night I was talking to her. We were actually having a great conversation.... Then I realized she wasn't really there. And as embarrassing as it is to be talking to a wall for almost an hour, I still cried...

I miss her....
So very, very much....
