My life is balanced and in order, and all is well.
Somedays I feel it and somedays I don't. The good news is I can always stop and return to love. That is where balance is.
Like the ebb and flow of the tides, my life is balanced and in order. Though at times storms may arise and waves may crash against my shore, I know they are temporary. The storms will pass. Order will be restored. The challenge will be resolved. Again I will experience serenity like that of the rolling tides-gently washing in and out from the great ocean depths.
I love the beach. It is proof that God exists for me. I wish I didn't fight the storms but I don't like the real storms that come in when I am at the beach. I know God is in the solution but sometimes I feel angry. When I feel angry it is usually because I am afraid I am going to lose something I think I must have or I am not going to get something that I think I need. Only until I return to God's will I have peace. No matter how stormy, I can reconnect and do God's will in the situation.
I am part of the grand design of the Universe, and even the difficulties in my life have purpose. if I wonder why a particular challenge has shown up, I can instead ask myself what is the best way to respond? What can Ilearn about myself from this? Every experience offers a lesson or a gift. My life has purpose and order.
Life on lifes terms throws me storms on many days. When it is something I have no footwork to do I turn it over to God. This week I have turned over my friend and the wedding. It is no longer anything to worry about. Do I worry again? Yes, somtimes I do. Then I catch myself and turn it over again. When I let go a solution will surface. Not the one I usually think but it always helps me grow through faith. I now know God will hold my hand through anything.
The good person out of the good treasure of the heart produces good. Luke 6:45
