day 19

i'm holding on for dear life. i'm going to finish this- no doubt. but life does not stop for our spiritual journeys- our little retreats of absolute focus. instead, we are forced to prioritize the struggles- the wrestling between flesh and blood and spiritual things. that my friends, is not easy. not even a little bit.

then again, who said anything in life is easy? can't say i've ever heard that before. life is a series of challenges- races- fights- mountains and valleys. the fact that we are here to participate and travel through it is a blessing...

i am counting my blessings today. i am reminding myself of the absolute goodness in my life. i am believing that more blessings are to come...more good things. those breaks that i really need have got to be on the way. the last heat waves of summer are rolling through and i long for a refreshing breeze...my soul longs for it. and for that reason, i know it will come. it has got to come....and come quickly.

with sacrifice comes blessing.
