This morning I had a flashback from my Hawaii days. The bugs arrived.
We used to own a condo in Hawaii and had some great vacations there. One year we stayed six weeks. I always felt like it took at least a week to get adjusted and after that you could really enjoy.
One of my rituals was beach worship. I never set an alarm but I would wake up around 4:00 AM, make a pot of coffee, gather my guitar, Bible and lawn chair and head for the beach. I would then sit there playing hymns I had memorized and eventually doing some reading as the day decided to join me. It was a glorious time.
I knew it was time to head back to the condo when the flies arrived. It was about the same time every day. It was like they had set an alarm. One minute I was in glory, the next in a cloud.
That happened to me today. Suddenly the bugs were everywhere. After a few waves of the hand I realized my morning on the porch was over. That is okay. God is everywhere and He was already waiting for when I got to my recliner.
Embrace your environment.
