Just for today...

Just for today I think I will turn off the t.v. and stereo and give You my full attention, Lord.
Just for today I think I will walk in the yard and wonder at your world and say thank you.
Just for today I think I will turn off all phones and listen for you to call me instead of a friend.
Just for today I think I will read more than the scripture that goes along with my devotion.
Just for today I think I will look for you in Your Word for more than ten minutes.
Just for today I think I will read what you have written for me in my husband's loving eyes.
Just for today I think I will listen for You in the laughter of my children.
Just for today I think I will praise You instead of asking from You.
Just for today I think I will sit in total silence and know that you are God.
Just for today I think I will ask you if I can fall in love with You all over again till it hurts.
Just for today I think I will ask if You will let me feel You and see You and wait till You say yes.
Just for today I think I will give you my whole day....my whole heart...
Just for today...I hope tomorrow will be another"just for today"...

It does make sense and yes, I do "think" a lot. I have some of Christ for the Nations. Just individual songs I've purchased through itunes and love them! I have never hear of Kari Jobe. I'll have to check her out. Thanks.

I really enjoyed this post and I know our God did, too.

Yes, they did. though the imagery of the well, touching His robe...came to me through the Bible. But yes, those were my thoughts that I put together.

I'LL LEAVE THE LIGHT ON FOR YOU...

Hey there!! Grab a cup of tea with me and let's talk about it... God is way too big to keep Him to ourselves and life is way too hard to hold it all in so pull up a seat, or sit on the floor, or just sprawl out anywhere.... I'm all ears....and so is your Daddy God....come on over and kick your shoes off...I'll leave the light on for you and have a hot cup of tea waiting...Nicole...

About Me

Jesus is everything to me!! Yep, that about sums it all up! I'd like to say my passion is praising Him till I drop but I guess that is not only my passion, it is my whole life!! Just to praise Him...I can't even brush my teeth without Him and don't want to! God has given me the most awesome privelege of raising three of the most challenging but amazing creatures I know...two girls, one boy. The biggest blessing of all is my absolute lover of my life on earth...the most handsome and wonderful man in the world...my husband...I may not always please my God, but I sure hope He likes my trying to. I just pray that when I meet Him face to face not only will I be able to hear "well done my good and faithful servant" but also "she did all she could". Sit down and talk awhile with me. I'm just a messed up girl on her way, but I'm God's wonderful mess. Aren't we all?!! Now, let's praise Him like no one is lookin'! He's so worth it!!

My Praise
