Yesterday, shoveling was easy, sun was out, gorgeous moonrise. Today, wifi is working. Easy to start the day with these gratitudes. But is it always easy? Sometimes I have to search. And what about all those mornings when I forget to be grateful, or worse still, forget about God all together? I hate to admit that sometimes I’m so swept up in the everydayness of life that all that I see is ME. Ugh.
Advent is a time of waiting. In myriad ways scripture asks, “What are you waiting for?” My answer: “God in my heart.” Remembering to start the day with gratitude, gives God a opening to enter. It’s easier to do this here at the cottage, sitting on the deck watching the sunrise. Harder at home amidst the busyness of life; but that’s no excuse. There is time, there is always time, God time.
