New Mercies

It was a cold and gorgeous morning. The sun was brilliant and sparkling on the water as I sat by the bay with breakfast, coffee, my Bible and my camera. After some time with my Lord, I went for a walk with Him. We crossed the boardwalk, wound around on the gravel path, saw the large live oak tree where General Jackson gave some famous speech and then we walked back and picked up litter along the way.

I couldn't stop smiling. It was one of those goofy smiles you get when you are with someone you are crazy about. I talked to Him the whole time. We had a good time. I needed that walk more than I can describe.

I returned home later a better wife, a nicer Mommy.
