when the walls close in

god is bigger than ever.

in the midst of the darkest hours
when fear and the mind demons
come to play folly with your
dreams, it is the knowledge
that life is perfect in the
moment because you
and god are always
together in all
that you do.

remembering that your life and the moment you are in have a true, deep purpose that you may not yet understand breathes life into the fruits of the spirit. a simple knowing that gives joy when there should be nothing but disappointment and depression. faith is not tested in times of trouble, because in those times, all you have is faith. and from that faith springs hope, and from that hope flows love and forgiveness. because, in the end, that is what its about: forgiveness. the complete acceptance of what is without blame for what it is.

from there, the path you walk unfolds as you are patient and moved into action. real change happens when forgiveness is the springboard for your actions as they move you one step closer to love.

peace & harmony,
elaine
