The Grid
Is On the Grid the opposite of Off the Grid?! If so, then how did we all suddenly land ON the grid?! Why do we now have to choose to go OFF the grid? Orrrrrr get thrown off the grid?

Last night a wild rain storm blew past our
house, knocking our power out for 6 hours. A dying cell phone battery
coupled with no electricity landed me....off the grid. I tried some
mundane what-can-I-do-on-my-laptop-without-wifi coping activities, yet
God kept calling me away to the intimate and wonderful, "Come with Me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest." Mark 6:31
It was in His Word, and in prayer that I could take a deep breath, have
a "conversation" with God, and realllllly wait for and listen to His
reply. That precious time carried me throughout my evening, my night,
and many times throughout my day today!
Power outages can get us off the grid. So can camping. And air travel. And so can sickness and trials. While God has you there, go ahead. Turn off. Tune out. And listen to Him carefully.
