“I thank my God every time I remember
you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy.”
Philippians 13:4
What privilege and joy it brings to my
heart each time I think of YOU. I am often gulping back tears when I see you –
where you’ve been – what God has done in your life. You bless me! Your spirit
shines brighter than you know, and while we are hasty to see and catalogue all
of our misdeeds, ills, faults and past – we miss that we could shine brighter,
love more, and still realize the dreams and visions God has given us if we let
those things slough off of us as old skin – retain the lesson, but lose the
“yuck.”
It was shared with me once by a wonderful
pastor friend that wounds of heart and soul heal. Sure, they are there.. but
one day… they hurt less, then a while later they don’t hurt anymore, but the
scar is still there. We’ll never forget because of the scar… but it no longer
carries its pain and we can move on – loving better – into the world who has
seen the wound and now your joy in moving on… and I always see a beaming,
beautiful person emerging from the trial…. And I thank my God every time I remember
you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with
joy.
Have a terrific day! Let your light
shine bright!
