All in all though, the clear skies this morning did remind me of God's hand. Several, actually many years ago, I was a student of the COURSE IN MIRACLES. Very strange study and reading, but one of the ideas I gleaned from it was that..."after a crucifixion there is always three days before a resurrection. Well...it is Wednesday...The "third" day of my week. The fog lifted and new inspiration is flooding my soul!
So now I know that my little Gracie (mini doxie) is not the only small furry wonder that does victory laps. There are so many dogs here on campus. Right outside my window I hear them playing, running and playing ball! ALL OF THEM do a victory lap after they caught their ball, frisbee, bone etc.
Today, I am doing a victory lap. I got my registration done on line! (very challenging for this old guy). I am approaching this day with the knowledge that having someone be "Thrilled" at your calling in life is enough. One can be thrilled and not totally understand. One can be thrilled and not totally embrace. One can be thrilled and still question my life. The point is they are thrilled. I can hang on to that today and run a victory lap with my KONG. I can run with joy just like the Lab in the quad playing with the yorkie. I can run a victory lap knowing that God is smiling and cheering on this slightly "on the angle" boy.
Just catching up on your new life. Wow...how cool! I'm excited for you. On another note, a decorating tip for you, NO SWAGS! You're much too hip.

ReplyDeleteHang on to the "thrilled" my friend, and forgive the rest! Underneath all of it is a whole lot of love for you, and of that you can be sure, right?
