Everyone wants a sunshiny day! But there are days that are everything except sunshiny. Days when as much as you want to perk and cheer yourself up, you'll find something to be sighing about. I had one of those days recently. Always the type of person who doesn't want to divulge details, I just had a conversation with the Lord, more of, asking Him (yes the audacity of me!).

Thankfully, the land didn't swallow me up and fire didn't come down from heaven to barbeque me. About the audacity issue, I personally believe that God knows me so well. And not only that, He can handle my tantrum moments gracefully. Going back, there are specific areas in my life where I don't get it. I mean not 80%, 70% not even 10% of God's plan is. I am in an absolute clueless mode. I can guess, sure, but there's not even a hint of what tomorrow will bring.

I read the verse over and over again until it hits the bottom of my soul. Then like a child crawling on her father's lap, I prayed thanking God for all the things He has done and for all the things that He's going to do (I'm excited!) -CMK.
Have you ever felt the same way?
If yes, let's sing along with David when He declared:
