Recently I have written...seems like a lot...that I am living through a period of intense anxiety...free-floating anxiety in that it is not specifically attached to anything I am dreading, but I'm dreading most anything upcoming. More interesting to me...the littler it comes, the harder it hits.
Today's Daily Meditation informed the problem. As Sarah Kendziorm, an expert in authoritarian regimes, wrote, We are heading into dark times, and you need to be your own light. ... But most of all, never lose sight of who you are and what you value.
I felt validated, comforted and touched by higher wisdom on reading that. According to me, if we aren't anxious in today's world, we aren't paying attention. Anxiety being my cross-to-bear, I get to feel it, pray thank You and be renewed...anew.
Blinding flash: Losing my material mind is my mind being changed...away from the material world toward the spiritual. Whether I feel it or not, I am on the right road, heading in the right direction.
The message-gift: The anxious mind has been with us forever...let it be. Knuckle not, renew by acceptance of myself just as I am...warts and all.
Anxiety is just another wart to God...as with God, so to me (with fingers crossed, I say).
God loves me so much...you, too!
Thank you.
