Like a sneeze
that doesn’t happen. Almost – I can feel it. Going through my day, walking and
talking with the Lord but my feet are earth bound. Doing daily stuff –
I am reminded
that I am older. Life is not perfect, yet life is good. The edge of light is
there. Now I have to reach a little farther to find the joy. To connect with a
very present positive. Sometimes a burst of laughter comes, like children.
Mostly, the choice is ours to bring the lighthearted, funny side of life into
the picture. Praising in all things seems to open a pathway of acceptance and
possible understanding. Knowing that just beyond the darkness of fear and
trouble is a brand new day. Even in a same old same old day – I am feeling a
hint of “something great” deep down inside. Like the sun wanting to pop out
from behind a cloud. And in the night, I know the morning will come. Have you
ever called on a friend just to say “pray me though”? A cold wind on a hot day.
A ray of sun on a frosty afternoon.
It’s a hope, an
assurance. Not the wisp of something just beyond my reach. It’s real because
God says so. HE DID IT. He died for us. His death means redemption. In that,
forgiveness is a reality. As we learn and accept the truth about Jesus Christ –
POW – there is the joy. For those that have moved into this stage of life, you
get to share and entice others to the same covering of the precious blood. Ah,
I can feel the joy of possibilities by accepting the challenge. JUMP. Jump into
your Daddy’s arms. He is here to catch you.
Dedicated to
Carolyn and Dan… and to all those who have already jumped.
