“Bless the LORD, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and do not forget all his benefits—”
Psalms 103:1-2 NRSVUE
Returning today to the wise counsel given by a friend who said,
“It’s time to stop living in survival mode.”
I’m not there yet, but I have begun to breathe deeply once again. Because I was feeling so insecure, I had become my own worst enemy.
Meditation was my rescue this morning, starting with this…
”Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are.”
I need constant reminders that God is in control. I have walked through so many fires this year that I have to relearn how to be soft.
How to yield.
How to ask for help.
How to remember that I am held.
Thank you to the people who remind me, incessantly.
Thank God for the people who remind me, incessantly.
As a friend who covers me in prayer particularly when I cannot find my own voice, gently reminded me again today, “all shall be well.”
Hallelujah, and thanks be to God.
Check on your so-called strong friends. Most of us are self-destructive idiots who don’t know how or when to yield. Thank you for loving us anyway.
