Ode to Special Circumstance

On the way home, I was stopped by a thought

I remembered a proposal that was made at dawn/sunrise one summer morning - where the whether was just right and a young handsome man made his way down on one knee and asked me to marry him.

The entire length of our relationship he continued to remind me how beautiful I am and not only that but to lift my head and defend my beauty, never trying to live in a shadow.

Then I remember the day he told me to just be good and leave the bad stuff to him.

These few memories compiled a moment of thinking of the grand love that God has for me.  The way that our Creator may just view me.  So once again I thank a man named after a prophet, Joshua, for reminding me of the still quiet messages that God tries to send our way.

Holding on

believing that I can make it through the difficult moment, the stress, the worry,
the secret conversations, how do I hold on.
believing that all is in the control of the master and just becuase the OM meets with the Managing Partner and then with her assistant, it doesn't mean it is about me.  holding on
believing that if that my worst fear were to be realized, I still have nothing to worry or fear because my God, my Lord, my Savior, the Holy Spirit, and the angels of the heavens are in control, protecting and working on my behalf - holding on.
as the anxiety attack gets worse as my heart rate increases as I sit still and just hope against hope - holding on.
Sweet Jesus, thank you that you are the anchor of my faith.  Amen

The moment when cheerfulness crashes and burns

Let's see is it the moment when you are ridiculed
Is it the moment when you are humiliated in a group of people

Is it when you sense that others are laughing at you.

God why?
Why do the assaults have to come.

I guess it is about learning
Learning to brush it off and pay attention to the most important and letting go of what is not important

Taking a moment to just fill in with the presence of God.
The world is filled with people who are hurt, who are not going to stop and prevent themselves from hurting others.
