The Answer:  “My nap!”

The Answer:  “Eating!”

The Answer:  “Picking my daughter up from school. I love to see her face light up when she sees me in the carpool line. She throws her backpack into the front seat and climbs in the back. Then she fills me in on all of the daily kindergarten gossip. Oh, how I cherish that time!”

The Answer:  “Talking to God.  He will never leave you nor forsake you.”

The Answer:  “For sure I most look forward to hanging out with my bros and sisters in the Lord! Being with God, family and friends means the most to me.”

The Answer:  “The one? No... the many things:  being able to get up, reading the Word, be able to be a witness in my workplace, eating, being able to fellowship with my church family (almost nightly... I'm single). I could go on and on because God is good!”

The Answer:  “Coffee/espresso.”

The Answer:  “Time alone.”

The Answer:  “Snuggling and talking with my husband at night.”

The Answer:  “The 45-minute drive home after work. It's a great time to turn up the radio, let my hair down (literally), and unwind after a busy day. Amazingly, St. Louis traffic issues, and by extension the crazy St. Louis drivers, don't even bother me. I just sit back and consider the goodness of God as I pray for the idiot who just missed my bumper by an inch.”

I love the ability to listen to any one of thousands of songs at any given time and I love being able to wear out any particular album that strikes my fancy...at any given time. If I were a poet, I would write an ode or a sonnet about my iPod. If I were Japanese, I would write iPod Haiku.”

The Answer:  “Time in prayer and the Word.... and eating!”

The Answer:  “Not to come across as super-spiritual, but in the past few months I've come to relish the time I spend in prayer and Bible reading. He is as close as the mention of His name, and when I shut the door on the distractions, He is right there. ‘Fade, fade earthly joy, Jesus is mine.’”
