For starters, I hope nobody is signed up to get this as an e-blast. I like the idea of writing here on my own. Back before my old blog (RIP, that blog!) got erased, I would post about once every few months. I mean, for years and years I posted daily. And then I got social media and basically killed my blog. And every so often I would toy with this idea of revisiting being a blogger and I would post once every few months.
I did that. And one day I got a VERY agitated email from someone demanding to be removed from my email list. Apparently they had gotten my blog post as an email and this person was not happy about it.
It was embarrassing, like I had shown up at someone’s front door and demanded to be let in and then headed straight for their kitchen and drank some of their coffee (or something).
But that was then. I’m over it. And I miss writing so here I am.
I’ve been really worried about a few things lately and yesterday, as I was praying (again!) for the solutions I had picked out for these problems, I felt an even stronger urge to just be at peace. Like, I know how I want these issues resolved but I also find myself much more interested in just feeling peaceful in the journey. If I can’t fix it all right this minute (and if I’m being honest with myself I’m never going to fix any of these things, God will or free will can do its thing, but it’s not me and my majestic control issues solving anything)…anyway, if I can’t fix it, please, Lord at least let me be at peace.
I prayed that — please let me be at peace. And please give me a sense of hope.
And later that day, God did exactly that. I had multiple conversations that helped me be at peace. I was able to see that issues were being dealt with, good choices being made.
Thank you Lord for your goodness and kindness and mercy. You don’t have to pour out any kind of blessings upon us. But you do. And I noticed. And I’m grateful.
