Mmmm... So, I woke up this morning in a stupor half dreaming that I was racing to the shower before I ever left the bed. ha. Well, I made it to the shower and was pleasantly awake when I left the bathroom after realizing that I had made it in and out of the shower with plenty of time left to sit and soak up some quality time with God.
That's when I ventured into the kitchen only to look outside and see that it was totally white-washed. I couldn't even see the tree ten feet out from the backdoor. It looked like it had snowed. I put my glasses on to see that it was just a very foggy morning... "eeee!" I love exciting days, and I could feel one coming on!
Fog... what an adventure. On my drive into work I pondered if the fog was God's glory how awesome it would truly be. And today seems to be a fitting day for our world to be engulfed in the fog, because today is the National Day of Prayer and that is precisely what we are planning to do... to pray that God's glory would fill this country.
"Father, I pray that you would fill this nation with your glory right now. Lord we come to you with repentent hearts for there is great wickedness that dwells within us and among us. We have trampled you and your people. Lord, forgive us for defiling you. We ask that you would rend the Heavens and come down. We seek to honor you. From the top down, please change the hearts of this nation. Thank you for hearing us."
I am excited to gather with fellow believers in Jesus today to pray for this nation which was founded on God. I will think of that fog from this morning as I pray!
