Let me tell you life is
good if we chose to make it that way. Sometimes we hang onto things
that sap us from victory, but when we finally do decide to let go,
the happiness begins in a big way. I am posting myself portrait today
just one day after I posted a very bad day for me yesterday. I was
extremely blessed at the Center today while having lunch with
friends. Of course my heart was still sad, and always will be, but
The good Lord puts a smile on our faces even in times of sadness. He
makes us forget, and will heal every tear that dim our eyes. I took
this picture of myself immediately after I walked in my house after
lunch. I had felt such peace, and joy till I just had to share. Some
of my friends and I made plans to celebrate together an evening at
the newly opened, beautiful casino near where we live. Before the
luncheon I was invited to a birthday party that I am so looking
forward to. The invites just keep coming making me to know for sure
that I made a right choice yesterday even thought it broke my heart.
I do not know what the future holds, but I am sure of one thing, I
know who holds the future. It took me several years to give up on
something I wanted to happen so badly. Now I am sure it just was not
God's will. Now I am reaping the benefits of my long sufferings. How
can I ever thank God enough?
The rest of this day is being spent by doing two hours of painting, and cooking a meal to take to my son's house tomorrow. I have been getting a lot of things done that I had been putting off for a way too long. I even ran the sweeper this morning before I started getting ready for the luncheon. Believe it or not that was the second time this week I had ran it. I even washed my breakfast dishes, one bowl and a cup, a spoon and a fork. Yep, this is me coming back to life. I don't know how long it will last, but it sure feels good while it is lasting. Please don't mistake me for bragging. I am just letting people know that God still answers prayer if we will give him a chance.
I'm looking forward to tomorrow because I know more blessings are in store for me. I hope this bit of sharing will prompt you to change an old way, and give God a chance to bless you even more than before. It's not always easy, but it wasn't easy for Jesus to die on the cross either. He paved the road for you and I. Let us not continue to make it hard for Him. He simply asks us to trust, and obey. If we trust we will be obeying when we make a tough decision.
God Bless
