It is morning . . .
I can hear my now Daddy, irritating me to no end. I would wake earlier than I would choose to be awake. He would have been up long before, hair well groomed, cuff links long in place, adjusting his tie in the mirror as I stumbled to the bathroom door, pretending not to admire the man I loved SO much. “Money may sleep late; Power NEVER does . . . look at the sun” he said when kissed the top of my head and closed the door as he left the room. My daddy always smelled so good and got on my last nerve!!! It was always too early for that mess!!!! And NOW, I sit facing the morning sun, purple onesie zipped, an hour before my regular business hours. I have been awake for more than 3 hours, and yes, I am TICKED ABOUT IT!!!!! No matter what time or condition I go to sleep in, it is at God’s will, WHEN I wake up.
Since I agreed to serve God, it is My Boss, Who is God, Who wakes me from my slumber, peacefully. It is my choice as to whether I will put my feet on the floor or even let it be known to anyone that I am awake. After that, during the day, I may choose whether I will follow God’s guidance. Have I made it known yet, that I am NOT into early morning?! My Boss, Who is God, IS. Sunrise seems to be God’s favorite time of day. That moment just before the sun pops over the horizon – the rising sun, IS impressive, extremely so.
Power
To me, it is the true manifestation of POWER; so far beyond the ordinary. In more than a BILLION years, NO one or nothing on the planet has changed the sunrise. EVERYONE and everything on the planet needs or is impacted by the Sun. THAT is POWER!!! This is a reason I wonder why people are so caught up on the Risen Son of old and ignore the current Rising Sun of God’s faithful power. I believe a single Divine Energy is responsible for the Sun and its Rise. GOD, Creator of Heaven and Earth. When the Sun rises anywhere but the East, I’ll reconsider. Some can stay focused on the Sent and I’ll remain focused on the Source, we can still Serve together, because either way God is good.
Maybe I should stop complaining about God faithfully Godding in my life, in the mornings. I go on and on in my own mind & to anyone who will listen about facing East during the day and the power I get from doing so. And My Boss, Who is God, gently wakes me every morning to bless me with light and love and I complain and refuse to lift my eye mask, unless Called to come out and pray, usually for someone else (so I think). WOW!!!! How unconscious and ungrateful of me. I could get up and go to my altar and greet God’s glory with appreciation and gratitude. I could make a different choice in the morning. Ok, now I am starting to see the personal, intimate benefit of THIS process. Thanks Boss!!! 9:43am
I was Told to go and check. Sunrise this morning was 6:20 am. I was awake, with my eyes covered.
