Getting Back to Me BY:KB 4.16.15

Luke 15:18     I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you.

Acts 12:11     Then Peter came to himself and said, "Now I know without a doubt that the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from Herod's clutches and from everything the Jewish people were hoping would happen."

I am in transition and flux and I like it but I don’t like it…..I like it because I know (intellectually) I’m being pulled and stretch to a higher purpose and calling. Yet, I don’t like it because I’m a creature of comfort and habit and I don’t like being out of my comfort zone…but I trust God. When I get stressed about the situation I find myself singing “Where He leads me I will follow…” Now, if you don’t know this I’m going to share a secret with you…..you are truly saved when you can sing in the face of adversity.

I have been in major transition for the past 5 ½ years. I've dealt with cancer, a major loss, emotional peaks and valleys and now I’m in a place of “getting back to me”  You know when you go through things you lose sight of what really matters. You start listening to the voices that speak loud but don’t often ring true. You look for comfort and relief in mysticism and magical thinking as opposed to truth and hard work; you know work but you hope for the quick relief….


This past year has taught me so very much about myself and I am so very grateful to get back to me, my values and my calm
