Awareness of God
Welcome to Sabbath Moments hosted by Colleen at Thoughts on Grace. These moments are times when we are with God, or recognize His presence in our lives.
This week I have been following the plight of the Japanese after the earthquake and devastating tsunami, and praying that God have mercy on them. Most especially I am concerned about the people in shelters with no heat, scant water and food, and those who have lost loved ones. Some of the photographs have served as sources of Lenten meditation, to which I have devoted extra time for the conversion of the Japanese and relief of their suffering.
Spring is advancing and I can tell because the energy level of my fellow therapy pool friends is up. It’s always good to see familiar faces and new faces, too, as we all are working on improving our quality of life. I am especially grateful to God that we have the money to belong to the rehab center. 
I don’t think I could keep up strengthening my muscles and controlling the fibro pain without regular workouts in the therapy pool. It is also a great blessing to be with others who are dealing with the same kind of thing I am in a positive way.
The sound of cheerful birds in the mornings is giving me the itch to get veggies planted, but it is too soon. We will be getting help this coming week to ready our soil – another blessing. This morning I woke to blooming forsythia, a sure sign that the worst of winter is over!
