The days blessing
Today I went to church with Em, and I am so glad I did, because I realize what I am missing, I found the validation that I have been seeking. It didn't really dawn on me though, till I was watching the SuperBowl, and I heard Josh Groban sing, I cried, I cried for all of the things that were important to me. I sat there and all of God's blessings came to me all at once, 33 years of joy, all at once, all for me. I don't think I have ever felt that kind of joy and peace, and all it took was a trip to the church house and the beautiful voice of a young man. I have found my faith again, and it didn't take a long excursion, it didn't require sacrifice, all it took was an open soul. I feel like a new person, for the first time in my life I feel complete, my souls burdens have been lifted and a weight has been eased. I wondered what there was to live for and now I know, there will be pitfalls and trials but with God and my loved ones, I will make it through. I can triumph over adversity, I can do anything through Christ who strengthens me, with the love of my friends and family I can move mountains. I don't have to live in the darkness because there is a light, that which I keep in my heart, I know that along the way to true spiritual enlightenment there will be times that I will fall, but then nothing worth doing is ever easy. I pray that I will be strong enough to make the changes that will be required of me on my spritual journey, but I know that if I am weak, God will see me through and point me in the right direction. Oh! the joy I feel right now is unexplainable, only those that have experienced this will truly understand, but when they experience it what a joyous day that will be. I want to thank Em and her family for welcoming me into their place of worship, I enjoyed my time today and would like to continue to be a part of the congregation. I need to stop now before this becomes the great american novel. I just need to say this last thing, to all of you who make me a whole, thank you and I hope to be in your lives for a long time, and that I will be there to share in your triumphs, and comfort you in your failures. I am truly blessed to have all of you, thanks again, and God Bless.
