Day 11 – Here in Your Presence…

Today was a really busy day.  I was supposed to be at the airport by 7:30 to meet “The Airport Valet” who picks up my car.  I set my alarm for 5 am so I could get up and read and have some time alone with God while the house was quiet and before I had to go.  That would leave myself plenty of time to pack and get out the door by  6:30 or so…

Problem…

It appears I “snoozed” my alarm OFF and (thank the Lord) woke up at 6:20.  Yes – I had 10 minutes to get dressed, clothes packed, computer packed and out the door….

I left by 6:40… world record time.  I really hope I remembered to pack everything today!  Anyway from the time I landed in St. Louis, I hit the ground running with 3 different meetings in various “suburbs” of St. Louis.

The point is this – I didn’t get time to pursue Him today like I wanted to, but He did continue to bring up Day 4’s revelation… so I just meditated on it.  I verbally said many times today “I acknowledge that I am in Your Presence here (in this car, in this office, on this highway, etc.).  Help me to see, hear, understand and receive it.  Help me to live it.”

By my 3rd meeting, I really began to physically, emotionally, and spiritually feel His presence with me… even driving in the 5 o’clock traffic in my rental car on a highway outside of St. Louis, Missouri.

Tonight – in the hotel room – the TV is off.  The Bible is open and I plan to spend some quality time with my Daddy.
