It’s just a teeny weeny thing.
That mountain.
Yea, the one you think is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo huge and much, much too large for God and Life to take care of for you.
Yeppers, your mountain is especially difficult and tough.
In fact, your particular mountain is the ONLY one that God can’t tackle. See, it is much, much too large for Him.
Huh?
Whatcha mean nothing is too hard for Him?
That being the case, what the world you been carrying on about ALL night to the point you have kept everybody up night after night after night for a week?
Good question.
*Cassandra turns away from the mirror and decides to put herself on some punishment for being terrified of not knowing what, how or who to find to help with her mountain. Good yikes here I come bathroom*
Breathe.
Eat.
Drink plenty of water.
Do some chores.
Read a book.
Watch a movie.
Take a walk.
Tell fear and fatigue to take two seats and keep it moving.
The biggest enemy you have right now, beloveds, in between the in betweenness of life, is YOU!
When life gets seemingly stale, slow, old, long, and whatever else it tends to do, don’t run from the mountain. Keep on removing pebbles. Keep on climbing that dumb thing. If nothing else, you are exercising faith muscles and all the other things one gathers when climbing apparently never ending, never able to get rid of mountains.
The mountain is there for a reason.
What reason you ask?
Ah!
Aha!
Keep climbing.
Keep asking.
Faith, true faith, real faith, takes everything you have at times. Life can be no joke and some blows do take the breath away. No getting around that. At times, the blows and hits just keeps coming in wave after wave after wave after wave of what in the worlds and lawdie mercies and ok reallies.
It is during THOSE times that the true you is exposed. Maybe, just maybe, beloveds, that’s what Life has been trying to draw out in the first place: The real you. The real me. Not the foo foo stuff that we show the world when the sun is shining, when the belly is full, when the bills are almost paid.
Yea, boy, it is when the tummy is shouting in anger, when the bills just not adding up with the month, when the kid is acting a fool, when the parent is acting a fool, when the job is on one. It is THEN we find if we will, if we won’t, if He will, if He won’t, if we believe He will, if we secretly believe and expect He won’t.
These times have an end.
The trick is being sure to be sure to be anchored to what is sure, what and Who is The Sure Thing.
And, after having anchored ourselves, well, all we can do is batten down the hatches and hang on for dear life. Jesus went to sleep in the boat, remember? Think I will go lay beside Him during this latest wave of storms….
brb,
Cassandra
#YourLifeMattersToMe
Note: It is imperative that you keep on being completely honest with yourself. If you are not a person of faith….okay, EVERYBODY has faith in something/someone. Just be sure you are tying yourself to that which will not toss you to and fro and every which a way.
I no longer allow fear, anxiety and doubt to be in charge of me and my decisions. I now live my life, with INTENTION. Allowing myself to feel, allowing life to feel as it does and working within that. We got this. We do.
