Praise God for the comfort of the Holy Spirit! Today was a good day! Now more than ever, I think about all the time I was FORCED to spend in church. Sometimes I wanted to be there, but most I did not. I grew up Baptist, so on Sundays this meant ALL day! Plus you had choir rehearsal on Saturday. However, These days I am not complaining. In fact, Im overtly thanking God for a mother who knew best! Throughout this cancer experience, the memories of deacons praying, the Mother board testifying, preachers ministering, and choirs singing have comforted and reassured me. Theyve resurrected the God I felt as a child. The same God who on days when I wanna stay in bed, says I made you, now get up and live the life Ive given you! I wasted too much time striving to prove to others I could be a sucess. I thought I was in control of my own destiny. Well heres some breaking news, that control freak isnt welcome in my life anymore. Shes been demoted, downgraded. She may not even get a severance package! Gods in control and His beauty and Grace is all around us! I am so ready to live fully and completely! Engaging myself in the spirit that will go on long after I die. This requires self examination, honesty, discipline, patience and faith. But the hardest part starts in my mind. Thats why I STAY prayed up. No longer letting people push my buttons and get me all worked up. Now, I just shake my head, say a prayer, smile and keep moving. In the words of Sweet Brown: Aint nobody got time for that! These days Im grateful I can take time to smell the roses! And I acknowledge the God of Abraham as my father! Live the life you are given and be a blessing when you can! #lifeisbeautiful
