Distant thunder, getting closer, rumbling in the night
No rain yet, nor any wind, no reason for fuss or fright
Low, deep grumblings, I should be sleeping
Instead a late night watch I am keeping
It’s like knowing when a change is near
So we carefully turn eye and ear
All the signs point one way
But exact events? None can say
Is it of more than just a storm I speak?
Is there more to this life that we should seek?
Change is coming, it’s in the air
So be on guard, be aware!
Running the Race 
“So be on guard, be aware!” are wise words!

Not so wise: being awake past midnight with two kids who don’t “get” the idea of sleeping past 6 on Saturdays. L is coughing, so I can hear that through his monitor (the kids are upstairs so the monitor is still useful even though they’re not babies anymore)…the rain is heavy…I had a lot of coffee earlier. I need to just turn the light off and sleep! Have a good night and weekend, blessings to you as well! Our house is up for sale, by the way, as of yesterday!!
You and your family are on my morning prayer list. 🙂
Thank you! That truly means a lot to me (and all of us)!
