Restless Heart in the "Daddy Lap"

Last year I posted this on another blog that I have. Or had. It is from July 2009. Oh...just to have some of those sounds back this very moment. And some extra boy clutter.

"Today my heart is restless. My senses seem to be highly sensitive. The sounds in my home sound louder. The clutter is more cluttery. And my mental to-do list? It's getting on my last nerve.
But I also sense a tug at my heart. In fact I think it may be the remedy for my restless heart.


And on another sound frequency, I hear, "Come away with me."

The words are only audible if I listen with my spirit. And even though my household sounds are louder, I hear His words clearly.

I know who's calling me. I recognize the voice. It is the voice of my eternal companion ~ Jesus. So, I'm going to answer his request and go sit on my front porch with His love letters in my lap. I know He'll speak words that will soothe and smooth this restless heart.And so my restless heart is a gift. A gift that draws me to Him."



I'm not sitting on my porch today. I'm going straight to the Daddy Lap.



My wonderful friend was visiting and took this picture of me at my desk...my cluttered desk. I would love to go back in time. It was a good day. ~ spring '09.










My only comment on this Restless Heart post came from Lisa Smith at Glad Chatter on July 22, 2009. (Lisa's prayer button is in my sidebar.) Her words in pink:

"That is exactly how I've come to view my own restless heart...as an invitation.Do you know that song by Norah Jones? Come away with me? It's one of my favorites. I can hear Him calling when she sings. :)"
