Imagine writing at night in a notebook you would like a life of peace and ease only to wake up to the opposite. Once I was over my initial reaction I thought of what I just mentioned and laughed. I still was deeply troubled and went on praying about the situation as I began to realign my morning routine and my emotions. I needed to “gather myself” and have the day I desired and wisdom to meet whatever will come. Clearly, I was off to a rough start.
Here is what I finally during the realignment and after I was centered:
Maintain your peace. Peace is sacred. Part of keeping your peace is to realize when you have walked out of the room or realm of peace within you (or within God if you have yet to understand the room and realm is within you, too). The thing to do is to walk right back into the space of peace you have built or opened up to. “I am outside of peace! Let me go back to my room of peace. Let me go back within. Let me run to God’s peace that surpasses all understanding. What am I doing out here? This is not problem and not much, if at all, my business.”
Most things are a distraction and others are not yours to deal with. I know it may be a parent with drama. It may be a child or a loved one with issues but it’s not yours to deal with. Some things are simply not your journey! You may assist and even that has to be done with WISDOM and if you lack wisdom in any situation (which I did at the time), then ASK GOD FOR IT. What should I do about this? Should I be doing anything? If so, how much? Prayer is a thing to do, you know?
When I walked out to my backyard landing, which holds a small black metal table and chair with a cushion, I saw a spider on it’s web. The sun had illuminated the web in which I would have ran into on my way to check on my raised flower bed. I knocked it down (Sorry, Mr. Spider). I then saw the bright yellow roses on one of my rose bushes. I also notice a yellow butterfly flying fast and wild, carefree across my backyard, into my parent’s backyard and then disappearing into the next neighbor’s backyard.
I was caught in a web of emotions. I needed to knock it down, take it down several notches. The roses seem to say, “Good Morning again friend. Look at us.” And the butterfly said, “Come back to peace. Come back to ease. Here is joy, happiness, love, positivity and prosperity is on the way. And most importantly, MOVE ON! MOVE ON BACK TO PEACE!
