The Challenge

I didn' t post yesterday. So I thought I would do two today. I have really started to enjoy blogging. I have challenged myself to write everyday. That can some times be hard for me, I'm not a gifted writer, but doing it makes me a better writer and a deeper thinker. (Well, sometimes, making butter isn't that thought provoking).

Here in the HOT (Heart of Texas for you non-locals) we have had lots of rain. Coming from an area where rain is a precious thing, it has been quite enjoyable. Except when it interrupts my sleep. It takes me a long while to get to sleep, so when I do, I like to stay asleep. (That is also another reason why I blog, it gives me something to do while I wait to get sleepy.)

Last night I experienced one of the noisiest storms EVER. It sounded like the lighting was striking right outside my bedroom window! There were several times I was startled awake by an enormous crashing sound! Over all it was another reminder of God's power, and awesomeness. (Is awesomeness even a word?)

Thank you Lord that we can still see your strength and power in the world today. You are the same yesterday, today, and forever! Thank you for being consistent.

I think "awesomeness"is a word! My mom says to tell you that we've been having muy mega storms in the last 10 days or so,,which makes for delicious sleeping. Not that that makes a difference to me, for, being a cat enables me to sleep anywhere and anywhen.

Wow, you're making me homesick/look forward to time in the States! I really miss the thunderstorms.
