Reflection
Reflection -- Reflecting on where I was this time last year and where I'm today... Looking at this woman in the mirror I see a more mature reflection. One who understands humility, forgiveness and most importantly God's grace and mercy. Which allows me to see all things are possible with God and when the storms of life arrive I'm hit with the realization that most of the issues/heartache etc... are centered around my inability to release control and wanting the world to be according to "Angie" As I evolve into a more mature Christian I have realized and embrace the true understanding of "surrender" I'm not in control, that is God's role. Surrendering has been and continues to be a slow hard and often painful process one of leaving self of out the situation and not being controlled by my flesh or the world. It has truly been a transformation of my mind, body and soul; to walk, think and be Christ-like... rewarding me a peace that (as grandma used to say) passes all understanding.
When the storms hit; remember you are being tested, even when you think no one is watching: what master will you serve... what direction will you take, who will you honor, (EXHALE and PRAY) then call upon the Holy Spirit within you. Look at that man or woman in the mirror and know that you can't hide from God. Be true to the path God is directing.
The High Road…
Some might wonder what is this “High Road”
Some might question, all they have been told
Some might sit and ponder on its true meaning
Some might even say it is too demeaning.
Just remember that being a child of our Father
Has us all seeking to go farther
Farther in our zest to impress our heavenly Creator
As we press towards our eternal life
So we must cut down on all the strife.
Never allow the drama to take its big bite
Hold on to Gods hand with your entire might
Love thee enemy, move towards forgiveness
Understanding the “High Road” principles is very simple business
It is the realization that treating others better than you expect to be treated is the rule of the day.
A game in which all His children are expected to play
Knowing this will make you very humble
I just hope you know you might tumble and stumble
As you seek to move towards that “High Road” remember there is always tomorrow…
Time has not offered relief
Time has not been my friend or surrounded me with comfort or relief
For those who have said that time would be my comrade, my buddy, my pal
I feel you have lied or some how taken your last bow
I weep with a loss that consumes my heart and my thoughts
Time has me continually asking the question of “How”
Time has me looking for her, yearling for her, missing her
Time has my heart forgetting to beat because of the loss of her
I pray that Time will give me peace with every year it brings
Offering remembrance and joy as the New Year horns ring
A place in my heart where Time will allow loving thoughts to abide and
Time will crease to be the place where my pain and hurt reside

The pain I embrace today… I don’t recall asking or praying for it...yet I am consumed by it. I pray for Gods’ strength and His mercy...and yet the tears continue to spill
The sadness seems to drain my will
That for a moment I crease to know what is real
But when I am very still God whispers gently and loving HE is here…have courage… my child…never fear because I am near…
My Heart Weeps....
As I sit amongst the other mother less children... my heart weeps
The wet grasses tell the stories of our tears…my heart weeps
Each face reflecting the battle between joy and grief…my heart weeps
As we gather around our love ones final resting place, trying to recall their face and gasp the lasting remnants of their love…my heart weeps
Mourning yesterdays and praying for strength to see us thru our tomorrows…my heart weeps
Finally as we depart tear by tear…step by step…one by one…we say a tearful goodbye until next Mother’s day… and my heart weeps

Symptoms of Spiritual Pregnancy:
My New Years Eve was spend watching Pastor Keith Battle online. It was wonderful watching the service in the comfort of my own house with my hubby while also fellow shipping others online. The experience was awesome... very interactive. The sermon was titled: Symptoms of Spiritual Pregnancy. WOW... This awesome man of God really gave us a message to ponder on. What has God birthed in you that you have yet to deliver. Is the fear of going forward holding you in bondage? Has the new you started showing and you are you still tying to wear the old you... struggling into an uncomfortable fit. Give yourself a blessing and watch Pastor Battle's sermon from New Years Eve at Zionchurchonline.com
