Releasing a Change

What do you do when you need a complete change...a turn around for the things you hope for?  You know you can't force it...it's not in your power to do so...and even if it were how quickly might it fall apart if done without the natural flow and rhythm of life...and the blessing of your Creator?  But just the same, if something doesn't give soon you're not sure what you'll do.

It's a tough place to be.  It feels like the universe is continually insulting you in your vulnerable state.  It feels like the successes of everyone else reflects some sort of a failure in you.  You try desperately to hold it together on the outside but it's all crumbling on the inside.  Your health emotionally is now affecting your health physically...it's all connected...and you're longing to connect with the person you lost long ago. 

I know where you're at.  It's mucky and foggy. Your energy feels depleted and your eyes grow heavy as your spirit sinks deep into this place of believing you'll never be filled with enough to sustain.  You might never find peace again...and you wonder, is it possible to shift your thinking and live like nothing is a mistake and that the trials of today are the stepping stones for tomorrow's achievements....tomorrow's graces that will be lavishly bestowed upon you.  To recognize that everything in life is a gift...not one moment that passes is a mistake and to walk away from a circumstance with life still intact is a miracle.  And if you begin to change your vocabulary, purposefully, to words of love and life...you speak life instead of curses even in the valley of the shadow of death,  I guarantee you your spirit-man will rise again...will spring to life regardless of the things you can't control.  

When your mouth overflows with life your heart will follow suit.
