I was having a bit of a no good, very bad day yesterday. I promise to turn it around today and Russ' gift will certainly help! I came into the office this morning to have my quiet time, some God time and Russ had left me a prayer to start my day. That man is over-the-top understanding...he shared a prayer by Phillips Brooks.
Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers; pray for power equal to your tasks.
Then, the doing of your work will be no miracle; you will be the miracle.
Every day you will wonder at yourself and the richness of life which has come to you by the grace of God.
You Linda, you are a miracle.
Amen
It's inevitable, as we grow older, as the years advance, we change. For me, of all the changes happening to me, my changing moral is the most painful. Some days it is almost like taking the sun out of the sky. Thankfully there are just a few, isolated, crummy days. Yesterday happened to be one, and there was my hero to the rescue, with hugs, reassurance and a beautiful prayer. I was pretty unpleasant to be around, but he knew my inner soul was crying and he moved beyond my outer suffering knowing that the thing about feelings is that you have them! They have a reason and a place, He did not evaluate the why or the expression, but in the most loving way of my soul mate, was there, by my side, ready to catch me if needed.
Let the feelings come. Let them wash over you. Let all of them reveal themselves; the good, the bad, the ugly. They are all a part of this life we are living. I am ever grateful that I have a guy in my life that understands that.
