Let me tell you
My emotions
Have been all
Over the place
Gratitude one minute
Bitterness the next
Sadness appears
Then joy appears
As soon as
I step one foot
Outdoors
My soul has
Been on the
Merry go round
It’s not fun
But today
God gave me
Little blessings
Little miracles
To hold onto
Until the desires
Of my heart
Become reality
When one of you said in a comment that God keeps blessing me, and I just don’t know it, I didn’t believe you. Now, I’m going to eat crow apparently. The level of my impatience these days is beyond quantifiable. I’m not proud of this. I have no idea why I’m admitting this. I don’t know if I will ever know why. God is obliterating my timetable with absolute force. Everything is back to basics. I’m going back to the ABC’s of faith. And it’s not fun. I must need a refresher course. Everything is being flipped. I guess God use anything to get my attention. Who knew it would involve a conversation about the tastiest sardines while trying to find them on the shelf in Wal-Mart today.
God can always take the simplest of experiences and turn them on their head to redirect and refresh us. My advice? Go with His flow!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering where you were going with the sardines! Stay strong
ReplyDeleteOne day at a time, my friend. And there's always a speck of joy in each one, even the very hardest.
ReplyDeleteStay strong. God Bless.
ReplyDeleteAn awesome Thursday post!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful post. I have similar days with all that we have going on. But I pray, I listen to my music and my husband keeps the laughter rolling. I pray for you my friend and have missed all of this. Take care and keep writing, you are beautiful at writing.
ReplyDeleteLife is such a contradiction. Happiness and unhappiness seem to present at the same time. It is beautiful that you are able to find those little blessings and recognize them <3
ReplyDeleteEach moment can offer us joy, we just have to take it slow and appreciate it. Have a good day.
ReplyDeleteI am smiling right now. Things in this life are constantly evolving in ways unknowable. Support comes in surprising ways. I have been caught up in a nasty spring time allergy/cold. Keeping a cheerful demeanor is a trial in itself. My wife is suffering from memory loss, losing things, constantly needing help with anything electronic, and since the doctor took her drivers license, I am the one who has to drive her to wherever she needs to go. The Lord has been good at making everything possible.
ReplyDeletePrayers, Major hugs and much Love
hope, God blesses to all of us every day....
ReplyDeleteLife is definitely interesting some days but the Lord is always with us.
ReplyDeleteBlessings and hugs,
Betsy
I hope the desires of your heart become realities soon! God is working within you! Your perseverance in your faith is paying off.
ReplyDeleteOlá, querida

The ebbs and flows of life. He always keeps us on our toes.
ReplyDeleteKeep watching for those little blessings and small miracles!
