Rainy Morning

I have today off because Jim has an appointment to get his port put in early this afternoon.  I haven’t posted publicly yet that more cancer was found so I guess this is your update.  Although I don’t want to make light of it, this isn’t what brought me to this blog. I will go into more detail later.

Of course since I don’t have to rush out the door to work, I have a cup of coffee and my Bible and I’m sitting in my Quiet Room.  I can look up and see the much needed gentle rain falling.  I try to start my morning walk with prayer for staying focused on the words and allowing them to sink in and be understood.  I want it to be more than light reading, I want to be educated.  This morning’s daily reading took me to the Psalms, which in the past have caused by eyes to glaze over.  Unlike the story of David and Bathsheba that kept my attention from start to finish, which just confirmed man’s desire to get enjoyment out of sin.  My study Bible has a short theme at the beginning of several chapters throughout the book to let you know what the chapter covers, then it tells you the author.  The author was instructed by God to write these words down, in my opinion.  The author for Psalm 44:  The sons of Korah (temple assistants).  So who is Korah?  I decided to take the time to find out since time is all I have right now.  I found the page in my Bible where the profile for Korah is located and began reading it before reading the Psalm.  It will help me grasp the message in the Psalm (I hope).  In the very last sentence of the profile, I find the message God intended for me this morning.  ‘God may want to work through you in the position you are now in.’   I read it again.  And again. 

Always pondering,

dar
