waking up

My bedroom faces east.
This morning and quite often I lie in bed with the sun shining through the window. One of the bedrooms in Mom's old house used to as well.
I need the sunshine like water and food it seems.
I've got a host of things to do from finishing the washing up to tidying my clothes through actually getting dressed :) and right now feel like doing none of the above in any urgency.
I've rediscovered the jukebox on the Sting.com site and it's playing through my pet aliens (treat from the tax-man for getting my tax returns done and in on time).
I'm in need of God but don't feel like doing anything about that either.
Here's the crunch.
Without Him I am nothing. With Him I can do all things. In His presence is fulness of joy. Not by might but by the power of His Spirit... I am most precisely in need of letting His Spirit wash over me and fill every corner of me. He knows this, we've spoken about it. He won't do it until I stay put though. Maybe not sat or stood, not even still, simply with my eyes on Him, my attention given over to seeing and feeling and hearing Him.
But am I prepared to give Him that much of me?
Choice!
Free unhindered choice!
Freedom to belong to Him should actually truly wish, to delight myself in the Lord, or to walk off into a drab and dingey sunset...
Every morning, many times a day, every breath I take I have that choice.
:)

Arise child and awake, open your eyes and see, your ears and hear, reach out and touch, taste and KNOW THAT I AM GOOD.

Chosen and consecrated, Beloved of God...
:D

I need the sun like I need food water and ... God

Laters ;)
