This blog entry is my testimony to Gods glory in our lives. We can acknowledge that we are his benefactors and he is worthy of our praise and thanks.
Isn’t that what it feels like at times in our lives? That statement is true in the fact that we as humans move forward with a dream, a perceived notion as to what we want. I always told my kids that the world is their oyster. To do and become the best of whatever they sought to be. When they showed apprehension my wife and I just supported them and said go for it. My life and yours are no different from our kids. In my eyes this world was my oyster for quite sometime. I had my family, friends all the while I continued growing in faith as I searched for true understanding of lifes purpose. I was part of a family business that was respected for our customers and those of our community. I could never see anything down the road and see anything but, good health and my growing business with its success. I loved people and my clients/ career and bent over backward to grow the business, grow my family and to help my friends . I had planned on that road to continue. Why wouldn’t it?
But, the road turned…
Todays writing is not so much to complain but to demonstrate how what we dream, what we dare to shoot for is not wrong. God has built into each one of us the ability to achieve our goals. As a matter of fact it would be sinful for us not to ettempt these things. Not just because of our selves but because when we attain our goals we then are able share the fruits of our blessings with others who need help and encouragement. Fruit can manifest itself in many ways by giving of time, giving guidance to someone on the road behind you in life and showing them the straight path. It could be financial when you see a need. You will know🙂 God will tell through our prayers and through our hearts.
Life has shown me that we cannot look back. There are no open doors to return through. We need to proceed forward into tomorrow with the same hopes and dreams that we have had but with one large exception. As we grow and learn the hard facts of this life we need to with age temper our expectations. When a change comes upon us it is not a failure.
From my personal perspective I have learned and accepted recently that I probably will never be what I was physically prior to Cancer. I believe that I need to push on and fight to regain what I can and to retain what I have.
My blog entrees have slowed down because I have been in this self actualization place since before Christmas. I cannot waiste my time on writing unless it helps someone else who is living their own difficult life walk. Plus sometimes I find it personally difficult to share my innermost feelings on my journey.
Today was that day. God inspired me to this writing today even the song came to me… A line of the lyrics and when I searched it this is what came out. God through the the Holy Spirit is guiding me and us.
So, do I like the things that life is showing me ? no. Did it kill my Spirit no. I am a little tattered for sure but again I am grateful for all that I have. I praise God for his life giving mercy that he has afforded to me in this moment. I breathe because God has elected me to do so in this moment.
Thats it, listen to the words of this song I sincerely hope that this writing and corresponding song resonates with the reader of this blog. Amen.
God Bless You All,
