In the Snooze

I cannot wait.

After five days away, my husband is coming home from a music conference in Indiana. 

I don't sleep well when he is gone.  I hear noises in the house that never bother me.  I miss his snore (do not tell him).  I slept beautifully by myself for 22 years, but now, after 20 years of marriage, I am ruined.

The problem is this:  I focus on the one who is missing instead of the One who never leaves.


The book of Isaiah reminds me: "You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you. (26:3)."

I am ready for some perfect peace.  Heck, I would settle for semi-perfect or flawed peace at this point.

Sleep sweet, my friend.  I know I will :)
