January 31, 2020 A Daily Occurrence

I get up early.
I don't want to miss it; the quiet.
Sipping coffee.
Awakening my thoughts for the day.
I get up early.
"Good morning God."
I get up early.
I don't want to miss it;
The Still Small Voice of the One who already knows what the day holds.
I get up early.
My phone dings and I read the daily devotion my friend sends me so loyally.
I get up early.
Top up my coffee.
My mind wanders to events of yesterday, words spoken, but mostly of words unspoken, things seen, but mostly of things unseen.
I get up early.
A time to set my mind on the day ahead.
A slow awakening to the lists, tasks, events that are coming.
I get up early.
The light is slowly showing itself outside.
Breakfast to prepare.
Beds to make.
The day will unfold.
Thank you "early". I love your slow and quiet welcome.
Photo: yep. Lights through rainy car window. Again. This time soccer field illuminated.
