Delighting In The Details

Lori @ http://allyouhavetogive.blogspot.com/ is doing this meme on her blog. Here is what she says about it: There have been several requests to make this into a weekend retreat of sorts....there really is not much to it, I have for several weekends (7 to be exact) captured a 'detail' from my week and tried to see it, how God would have me see it. Some of my past reflections are here and here.....It has been a way for me to think about those 'little things' that sometimes elude me, and how there is so often a BIGGER message, if I just take the time to see it! I have decided to join her in this: This week much of my time, was spent going over the details from my eye doctor appointment. The news was very disappointing, and discouraging. The doctor basically gave up on me, but that is ok. My true Physician will never give up on me. I came home from the doctor, and cried. But, God gently wiped my tears away, and quickly restored my hope. He is my true vision in this world, and daily lights my path. I will be going to a new eye doctor for a second opinion, and no matter what the final outcome, my eyes are focused upon my precious Father God.
Be Thou my vision, oh Lord of my heart,Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art,Thou my best thought by day, or by night,Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light,Be Thou my wisdom, and Thou my true word,I ever with Thee, and Thou with me Lord,Be Thou my breastplate, my sword for the fight,Be Thou my armour, and be Thou my might,Riches I need not, nor man's empty praise,Thou my inheritance, now and always,Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,High king of heaven, my treasure Thou art, High king of heaven, when battle is done,Grant heaven's joy to me, oh bright heaven's sun,Christ of my own heart, whatever be fall,Still be my vision, my ruler of all.
