Remembered gold from Thaddeus Golas: We must go beyond reason to love.
It seems that every time another less-than-wonderful thing comes calling on me, and self-pity rears its ugly head, my beloved Joe Biden is hit with another worse-than-the-other...prostate cancer being the latest we've heard of. My heart-thoughts and prayers go winging to him and his family.
I have been feeling at sixes and sevens but that very feeling is what has kept me focused on God in my life. Especially the unwanteds, i.e.:
the seeming, outer, appearance of dementia
the ongoing upper right arm pain
the events from April 30, 3:00 AM, to this day
the intense anxiety
the constant shaking within, yet the feeling of lethargy swamping me
the realization that my life has already changed and is likely about to change more
the need to move from here where I have lived since 1999, the longest I have lived anywhere
That last on the list seems to be the biggie...but there is always the unexpected more, if we're doing it right.
The Father within me is bigger than my fears, better than my hopes and for my benefit no matter how it is appearing to my reasoning mind's eyes.
Thank you.
