Instantaneous Renewal

Nice thing about humans is that we can restart our day at any time.  Review and revise feelings and attitudes.  Make new choices.  However, we’re also subjected to the illusion that we are controlled by everything outside–and inside of us! 

Back and forth–the weather holds us back, my boss didn’t like the idea, we can’t control the economy, my kids won’t cooperate.  Astounding barriers bump us from all sides!

Choice, however, reminds me that I can make a turn at any point.  I can take a breath, look out the window and be on that branch out there with the wind gently moving my heart.  I can allow the cool gray sky to nurture the firery energy inside me.  I can let the silence soothe my bones to stillness.

I may play volleyball with my body–excitement, anxiety, heart pounding, frantic–and I can set my sails to catch the wind of Her Word.  I move only along the Way of Her love.
