I have 16 or more hours of awake time, fresh, untouched, pure life time.
No one has ever been here before, we're all going into this as explorers seeing a land for the very first time, no one is experienced here yet.
Like looking over the fresh snow covered fields, a perfect blank canvas, anything is possible.
May Father God help me not to go crashing and stumbling into this new land, yelling war cries and seeing how fast I can get to the other side, how much ground I can cover.
Busyness, stress and hurry... these are the things that will pollute and destroy this pure place, these hours stretched ahead of me.
Instead, may I walk slowly, tread gently here. Reaching out to my fellow explorers, hearing them properly, smelling the scent of leaves getting ready to fall soon and breathing deeply the fresh sea air.
May I never assume I know the way in this place, but to ask for help, to be unassuming in my exploration, seeing all this beauty through the eyes of a child.
Thank You God for this incredible new place.
Thank You for Wednesday.
May every space, every moment of this day be filled with You, for You are the only one who has come this way before.
