Appreciation of an Interuption

So yesterday I’m sitting in my recently moved into dorm room-after waking up way later than I should be. And I decide to pry myself out of bed and warm up some tea before having some God time to start off my day…err..afternoon. One thing about college is that privacy is something that must be taken advantage off at all costs. It is honestly really hard to get alone and just have some time with the Creator, one on one. One challenge that I constantly face is having that precious alone time with Him before I have contact with anyone else, for preparation for the day and cultivation of our relationship. Therefore I decided that since I was alone and the roomie was at work, that I better snatch up the privacy while I had it. So there I sit, sipping hot tea and I had just finished exalting and thanking Him. Another challenge for me is shutting up. Haha- honestly though I talk his ear off way to often rather than just sitting on His lap and listening to what He has to say. I mean, He is God; I need to have more of a teachable spirit. So I’m sitting…quietly…eyes closed…when out of nowhere I hear this blaring sound. Living in a girl’s dorm one becomes accustomed to hearing ANY humanly possible noise at ANY time (a.m. or p.m.) and after a while one learns to expect the unexpected. However this time I am taken completely by surprise yet It doesn’t take long to realize what the noise is…nothing but, Celine Dion in her 90’s prime singing, or from my point of view screaming the song “The Power of Love.” So it’s like **quietly thinking of God and being still……still… CAUSE I’M YOUR LADAAAAYYYY!!! AND YOUR ARE MY MAAAANN!!!” Honestly my initial reaction was utter annoyance. Seriously?! #1 CELINE DION? really!? #2- I am trying to have my quiet time here! The world revolves around me remember!!...ooooo yeah….. hmmm. So I get to thinking… “’Cause I’m your lady…and you’re my man…” hmmm… ya know, I don’t think enough Christians think about their relationship with God as an incredible love story..and real I’ll-die-for-you love (not an “o my word I Looovvvee pizza!” type of “love”). So I quickly went back to being still and quiet before Him- but after a while I decided to tell God… “Ya know, I am your lady, and God, you are my Man.” Not only is He my man, He is The God- Man. There is no one like Him, He is the most courageous, brave, powerful, and faithful God-man I ever have and ever will meet.
Disclaimer- Don’t get me wrong- I’m not endorsing this song or necessarily saying that God spoke to me through Celine Dion..haha but I do know that despite our self centeredness God can use anything to remind us of who He is, in relation to the world and in relation to us…
