“Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord shines over you.” Isaiah 60:1 HCSB
Good morning, DearHeart,
Only four days in and 2016 has already dealt a blow to many of our local families. As a community, as a friend, our hearts reel in questions and concern. Tragedy often stops us in our tracks, begging God for answers. Know this … He is faithful, DearOne, to lead us through the questions.
He asks, “My Child, do you trust Me, even tho you aren’t yet meant to understand?” Even in tragedy, even when we are set back on our heels from the attacker, He asks us to review our choices of the day, and to be aware … “Have you made choices today that are wise – that will work on your behalf and the behalf of others?” If so, bless those choices. Take a deep breath and ask your Creator to fill those choices with His Divine reasoning … with His Divine grace. Only He gives grace in full measure – the kind of grace that allows you and me to arise and shine from the “even tho” place where we feel slain. His grace is a power that comes in and transforms a moment into something better.
He is the hope that allows us to love, even when under attack. As you arise choose to leave love at every place you walk today, at every doorway you pass, with every one you see, with each soul that crosses your mind – love. And, send them a blessing.
Change begins in the simplest of choices, in the simplest of ways – with you and me.
Wake up.
Arise and shine.
Love.
Go.
