Get Up, Don't Miss This

Mr. Heinecke left early Wednesday morning to catch a plane. I continued to sleep even though I knew I felt an urgency to get an early start on my day.

Then I heard something. I knew who it was. It was Him.

"Get up. I want you to see this." He said.
"Oohhhh, I'm too tired." I mumbled.
"No really, I don't want you to miss it." and then He sounded desperate to get me up.
"Can I see it later?" I asked.
"If you wait even one more minute, you'll miss it for sure." He pleaded.

I pried open my eyes and looked out the window of my bedroom. The view was amazing. Jumping out of my covers, I quickly grabbed my camera and ran to the back porch.

[click] [click] Oh, He was right. I didn't want to miss this! I was speechless. What a wonderfully perfect sunrise to start a spring day. A gentle breeze, a few geese hitting the water on the pond and my kids still sleeping while He and I talked about what we would do today.

"Thank you Father, for waking me up to see this masterpiece." I told him.
"You're welcome." He said. "I painted it especially for you."


Don't miss what He has for you today!
