Time To Love

There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven; Ecclesiastes 3:1

Time. My internal clock is so out of whack right now. On our trip we have crossed three time zones so many times, it makes your head spin. Mountain, central, eastern, central, mountain. Yesterday my sister and I found ourselves parked in front of a store that wouldn't open for an hour. This morning everyone in this house was awake at 4am; three dogs and three humans were all out of bed by 5:15. We are early risers, but this is ridiculous! Makes you wonder...which time zone is "God's time"? Is daylight savings central time zone the real one? Summer time or winter time, before the last week in April or is it the first Sunday ???? Is it 7:02am or 6:o2? Help.
Nice to know that at a time of confusion such at this I can go to good old Ecclesiastes 3. It doesn't matter what time the clock shows, it is all God's time. Right now God has given us time to share love. Three humans, three dogs, 5:30am, assembled on the sun porch, coffee in hand, anticipating a glorious sunrise, appreciating each other. God blessed us with the extra time this morning to laugh and to enjoy. God blessed us this morning with a memory to keep when things settle down, when the trip time is over, for when we are miles apart and miss each other.

Home

The name of the Lord is a strong tower. A righteous person runs to it and is safe. Proverbs 18:10

Home to the towering mountains of southern New Mexico for a week and then back on the road. My sister and I started in Missouri, traveled to New York, then down to Florida, and across to New Mexico. We will head back to Missouri Sunday. I will be there a week with two of the grandsons and then back here. What a lot of travel and time away from home. It could not be done without the blessings and goodwill of my spouse. He understands the need for my sister and I to spend time together and for the family visits along the way. God bless him.

We have been kept safe on this journey by the many prayers of friends and family. Like a strong tower with a light sweeping out to follow us, God has had us in His sight the whole trip.
