I miss my quiet times.
It's not really the me-time that I miss, but the quietness and the stillness of everything around me. The peace that I experience within me.
I miss the DAILY early walks that I have on my way to work back in Manila, where I can talk to Him and tell Him everything and anything. Those were long talks Lord and I was very much attuned with what You were saying because everything was quiet. I knew that I was in a state of grace. It was the best way to start my day!
I miss the long travel hours from my home to work that allowed me to think of how my day has been, the blessings and the answered prayers.
I miss talking to Him, just doing that, and not be bothered by a thousand and one thing needed to be done for the day.
I miss connecting with Him. I miss just being with Him.
Lord, in the daily grinds of my life, You are the first one to go. I know I am abusing the fact that I know that You are just always there, waiting for me to make time for You. But the thing is, do I ever make time for You? I say I miss talking to You, and yet I prioritize other things than sparing a minute or two to talk with You. I am sorry.
I have been bombarded with a lot of things-to-do and I have a lot of things going in my head, everyday. I can't pause. I can't stop.
I want to re-connect with You. I realize now how much I've missed You, on how I missed our quiet times together.
In the busyness of my life, allow me to have that peace and stillness, so I can be with You again.
