I've been out of the devotional loop for the past few weeks. Shingles attacked and brought a custom look to my face and a persistent headache that felt like a little Leprechaun had moved into my head with an ambition to become a boxer, with my brain the punching bag. It has been a little frustrating not to keep up with devotional thoughts each day but this morning it occurred to me that it really isn't about me and whether I am able to process a normal devotional walk, or whether I must batten down the hatches and weather a sickness. Sickness is something like a fast and we are reminded that it really is God who is carrying us at all times...we just realize this more correctly when we are ill. When I am silent, He still speaks. When I am unable to think or function, He functions still. Though I am on a riverbank, the river is still flowing. How good to be reminded that He is the source and I the recipient. He is Creator and I am created. He has always been and, together, we will always be!
Psalm 86:10
For You are great, and do wondrous things;You alone are God.
