Shine

Someone said something to me that made total sense today. Not that that doesn’t happen frequently, I’m blown away by the depth of my friends and people that I meet, but today someone said something that kind of rocked my world. She said, “God has called you to suffer right now,” and I was wasn’t impressed with that. Yeah. Just look at my life! then she continued, “but you are fighting it, which is natural, but you need to embrace it.”

Embrace it? That is not normal, but it was like the dawn suddenly broke. Strangeness, I smiled loudly. Thats what I’ve been missing these few months, I’ve been fighting God’s comforting arms like Summit does when he doesn’t want my hugs. Surrender to him, stop my baby fists pounding on him in a fit, my eyes screwed shut tight in defiance.

I think I’ll sleep good tonight.
