Hope Discovered

Greetings to you, we are truly blessed to be here. On this sixth day of the fourth month in the year R&R(ReCover&ReStore). I continue my discovery during my recovery. I recognize my space and my place. I walk in faith since I have discovered Hope. I discovered that Hope creates the will to live, to stand, to go on. I discovered that hope will not make me ashamed during my tribulation. I discovered that Hope is one of the three virtues that abide beside faith and charity. I discovered that Hope gives courage, tenacity and strength to endure...just as Jesus did when He went to the Cross, despising the shame for the Joy that was set before him. I discovered that Hope lifts you up out of the pit of despair and gives you the power to run when your feet have failed you. I discovered that Hope is like the dew in the morning, simply resting upon my brow. I discovered Hope, is the unction to function. Hope is the Strive to keep you alive.
Without hope where would we be? I discovered it here, in this place on my journey. When it seemed like nothing was going according to the vision I saw, when the dreams turned into nightmares; when the joy in the morning turned into weeping in midnight hour. Hope... where are you? I need you, I long for you. Is there more than just this? At one point, I did loose it, my hope. I discovered it though, I had left it at the last fire, it was being consumed by my guilt and my tears...but then, I rose, like a woman out of sleep, or one in a coma. I discovered that if I could just grab onto a glimmer of hope, a slither of hope and phantom of hope even, I would be able to rise. I discovered that if in this life...in these people, in the things I can see, if they were the only things I had hope in...I would be so miserable. So, I have discovered that I must build my hope on nothing less than Jesus' blood and righteousness. No name, no frame, my hope is beyond this temporal madness. Therefore, I can stand, I can endure, I can go on. As we were reminded last week...Why are you worried, disquieted, uneasy...Don't you have hope in God? Yes, You Do have hope in God!!!!

Take a Seat...

Part 3, Page 18, Chapter 2017 it's time to take a seat and see the world with brand new eyes!  Get rid of the lies you heard, replace the word that would negatively impact your thoughts.  Stop running, keep still, trust your heart and commit if you will to the will of the author, He knows the story. You deserve to take a seat and enjoy the moment, live in it, embrace it, cherish it and allow it to become a sweet memory forever in your mind.  Stop running, stop talking, stop and just take a seat.  Clear your mind and breathe in deep, deep until you feel the wind lifting you from that low place and then blow it out, hard and loud so that you hear it escaping from your lungs like a bird freed from a snare!  Turn the page and continue to journey W ithout R egret G uilt or S hame #WRGS .    Remember every now and then to just TAKE A SEAT!  

Looking back over Turned pages....

As I turn to page 25, chapter 2012, I have taken a moment, just a moment to turn back and review some of the previous chapters.  I look back and am reminded of the miracles I have experienced.  I am reminded of the miracle that I am.  As I look back, just a few chapters, I see an amazing story of a woman kept, a soul saved, a heart committed to the lover there of.  As I look back, I see that on several occasions, I did not understand what was going on at the time of the actual writing, but now, I can see that everything is working together for good.  I read over places where the challenges seemed overwhelming and changes did not make sense, but as I read further, I saw the benefit of each and every trial.  I look back and review the pages of this book, the author is brilliant, the pieces did not seem to fit, but He brought them all together.  Just like a puzzle, I can now see every piece fitly joined together.  I did not notice then...

2017 - Epiphany & Authenticity

Part- 1, Page 6, Chapter 2017 - Embracing M.E. (My Eve-Olution)!  We have a brand new scene in 2017. Navigating through the various landscapes, habitations, atmospheric pressures have all revealed for me a clear view of my authentic self.  Looking in the mirror and actually seeing, speaking my truth and actually hearing it, in the most raw form and not offering apologies for that truth.  Arriving at this place required me to leave skin, blood and sweat as a sacrifice on the altar that resulted in a life altered, scene changed, re-arranged and now sustained. Today, there is gratitude, on this day, when the world recognizes and acknowledges the manifestation of my soul's lover, I too appreciate my own epiphany, when I discovered the incredible power within, I chose and will continue to choose, from this day forth to use it to the fullest.  I am now living in that free place, liberated and substantiated,  making every decision and reflecting on every area of this ...
