Good morning
Zebras,
One of the
great joys of getting older has been thinning eyebrows. Every morning I have to draw them on. Sometimes they go on right the first time,
but sometimes they are too dark and need to be blotted and sometimes they are crooked
and need to be redrawn and sometimes the eyebrow pencil doesn’t seem to be
enough and I must get out my eyebrow kit to finish the job.
But I usually persevere
until they are acceptable.
That is how you
need to look at quiet time. It doesn’t
need to be the same everyday-some days you will need a longer time and
sometimes God gives you what you need right away-and sometimes you need more
than just the Bible to hear what He is saying.
That’s where
devotions and good books come in. Oswald
and Tozer are my two favorites.
But the key is
to learn to let Him lead.
And then, just
like I check periodically check a mirror to make sure my eyebrows haven’t
rubbed off, do a spiritual self-check throughout the day.
Stop and check
in to see if everything still “looks good” and when you feel the love, joy,
peace etc. start to wane take time to stop and redraw your "eyebrows"
before they are completely gone.
I love you
Zebras, so much and I pray you have a wonderful day.
Love,
Jill
