It Was Very Foggy in the Morning

I always take a drive down to City Park, for my first, morning cup of coffee. This is something that I've enjoyed, for many years. This puts me in gear, to face another day.
A couple days ago, the fog was really heavy in the air. I didn't worry about getting in a wreck, because everyone was driving with their head lights on, at a very low speed.
And parked at City Park, visibility of Lake Huron was almost impossible. I spent this time sipping on my fresh coffee, studying God's Word and in prayer. It's a beautiful time with the Lord, I wouldn't trade it for anything
This is where I discovered that God loves me, as a flawed woman I used to think I had to get all the wrinkles pressed out, first. Only then,, would the Lord accept me. Nope! This wasn't the truth

@kobesbuddy I love fog. Isn’t it just great being accepted as you are, warts and all?!

@kobesbuddy Surprise!!! Only two things I know for sure - I’m a great sinner and Christ is a great saviour.

I had it ingrained in my brain. I fall short and there's no way a Holy God will accept me this way!

@xFiacre And I fall short in many ways, I've been forgiven for a lot. And Jesus Christ is definitely a great savior!

@kobesbuddy Exactly. Hey, is my latest post visible? It has a picture of a church on it.

It is good to have all of creation as your chapel. The changing weather shows God's hands.

@kobesbuddy I agree completely, but the way that you do it is special, alone near the lake.

If I didn't meet with the Lord each morning, my day wouldn't turn out right. There's good therapy in praying to God and studying his Holy Word.

@kobesbuddy I'm glad it wasn't bad driving.
Yes, it does.

Driving wasn't too bad, but I still was driving at a much lesser speed. Spending time with God, it molds my day with more of HIM.

That's a lovely way to start a day. And so true that God accepts us with our flaws and loves us the way we are.

I start my day with a slow relaxed walk for fifteen minutes around my terrace garden. I enjoy all the blooms and talk to my plants.

What a nice time to have to yourself with your Lord. I enjoy the fog but, I don't have to drive in it.

Fog sucks but I'm glad you managed to relax and have a good time all the same.

When I do this early in the morning, Satan loses his foothold to interfere with my day!

What's really amazing, our weather hasn't been chilly. Instead, it has been quite humid with very comfortable temps.

I've done this for many years. It wards off those negative thoughts, that tend to drag me down.

I have always loved fog particularly where I spent my summers in the Catskill Mountains of NY State, It would be so thick and you would be walking on a country road as the fog slowly lifted and then the sun would come shining over the mountains, Always a lovely site,

I'm glad you still go to the City Park to enjoy your coffee and reflect. God loves us all, flawed or not. Have a good day.

A few times I didn't do this and my day seemed to flip flop, all over the place. Satan hates us to enjoy quiet time, with God!
