I love how in a moment of clarity we question how someone else could do what they do, that seems to us, to be so far off the mark. Maybe without our projected interference they are not off the mark at all or even just a smidge(is that a word?). At any rate, when you miss it could be a moment or a mile. It can all be very devastating. To stay focused enough to try again rather than lamenting our failure is a gift few have been/are willing to accept. This is my prayer for myself and I will share it with you as we prepare for spring and the coming anew of all life;
God I thank you in advance for allowing me to see beyond my own faults and press toward the mark. I thank you that in every moment I have the courage to choose your love over all distractions that may be calling me to build a web around myself of self pity and mediocrity. Instead, I am in awe of the beauty of your call. The sweetness of your voice. I am surrounded by your love and light inside and out. I am safe remembering Life is for me. God is for me. Whatever is against me I give no recognition. It has no place in my thoughts because I know that through the Christ in me, my thoughts become things. So I am thinking only of those things that God has given to me for us to create knowing that whatever there is for me to do is set right before me and the rest will be. In the infinity that God is I cannot fathom the way that things get done . Knowing God I know that they are done. I remember that the provision is made for me before I have knowledge of it's need or even want. I am made always aware of the care and attention that has been place on details in the crafting of the universe by simply looking at nature; At the turn of the season; At the flowers; At the trees. I look at my own body and know that every crevice, turn and point and curve were masterfully intentional. I am crafted by the most high God. I remain as a "unique unrepeatable miracle of God"(Rev. Kevin Kitrell Ross). I am grateful that the majority of its functions God tends everyday and I have not ever controlled. These are the things that work just fine just as all other laws of God including my thoughts become things. As a man thinketh...My thoughts turn to gratitude to the nature of God and return to gratitude. Amen and Ashe
