Everyday begins with the sun rising in the east …
we are Awakened to the Dawn of a New Day
filled with Possibilities
if we can let it.
Things go right
and things go wrong.
Even so,
each day the sun Rises
and each day the sun Sets.
At its setting – we put it away – the day.
Deep in us – somewhere – we
understand that we finished
something.
Let it go
REST, says GOD
and let yourself be made
New
again and again and again and again
every
Day.
Prune the vines of dead branches
Make way
for energy to come
to invigorate you.
Be invigorated first
with HOPE
then with LOVE
you will then have a new life.
For if we carry the Dead Weight with us
there will be no room
for new.
TRUST in RESURRECTION
and it will come to you.
Let expectations of Good
or Bad
Go and instead …
be ready to be
surprised.
Be amazed that the dead lifeless bulb
surrounded by nothing – when placed in dirt – becomes
a tulip – bright and strong.
Be amazed that in letting an old friendship go – one that
died years ago – in its place a new one blooms
filled with wonder and possibilities.
Be amazed that when you let go of a worn out
image of God
one that is …
Vengeful Angry Mean
And in its place a
Loving Forgiving Wonderful Joyful
God will
move into your
heart and soon
your desire for
Vengeance Anger and meanness
Goes
Away.
Instead
You are filled with
LOVE
Forgiveness
Wonder
Joy
Resurrected into a new person
on a new day
into new life.
