Balance...Have you ever been off balance in your life and in your daily walk?
First, I called on the angel standing with sword in hand and wings spread to the heavens to receive God's energy and love. She is my warrior angel, who represents strength, power, courage, endurance and the power of God's ever present love. And this week I had to call on her on more than one occasion.
Life brings what it brings...Some days joyous, other days challenging. We all get them. But what do you do with your challenges?
We can grumble, complain, kick the dirt when we our angry or frustrated, which by the way really works for certain situations. It's a physical release that sometimes allows you to once again become quiet and still.
This week I asked for help from both angels. I had good news, sad news, and frustrating news from all sides. One day I was down on my knees like the lady with hands gently held together, eyes closed in quiet repose, and wings lying still to receive God's energy and regain peace and balance.
Each angel represents what I am striving for every day...Balance, strength, endurace, humble gratitute for what God has done in my life. I need the strength of one and the peace of the other. I remind myself to let go of bitterness and self doubt and to put my trust in God and know that what He has for me must be something amazing.
If you only say one simple prayer today let it be "thank you." It sounds so simple, but it remains so very powerful. By remembering to say thank you for whatever you have and not grumble about what you don't have He will continue to bless you.
Continue to find your balance everyday and the peace you seek will come from the one who gives it to you...yourself. Peace comes from within and in the knowing of God. Continue to seek and you shall find.
Bitterness is like cancer. It eats upon the host. But anger is like fire. It burns it all away... Maya Angelou
I am strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. (Epi. 6:10).
