03/09/09

The chill in the air has me shivering this afternoon. The babies are still sleeping, while the others are enjoying the backyard. I have a moment alone.

I enjoy the quietness when I can catch it. Even for a moment. Peace settles over me when everything is still. I imagine the Holy Spirit descending on me. Now that I am still He can wash over me.

Today has been less than a peaceful day with older children testing all boundaries and the babies waking before the sun rose. I feel a little sleepy now, though rather than shut my eyes for a few moments, I intend to delve into my latest book. I enjoy this time for me. Thank you, God, for this rare treat.
