It seems Tuesday is rage day for me. As much as I understand theoritically God is in control, when the unthinkable happens in my family I am shocked at my lack of control. Perhaps control isn't a measure of success I should base my worth around but I do. Functioning willy nilly, raged, animilistic in my emotions for me does not feel well. Others maybe that is what lights you up, me not so much.
Solace comes from this theoritical knowledge, converted to fuel for the heart to rest. To understand pure rest in it's fullest framework of peace it's richest when battle tested in these explostions of life. Contrast brings an unusual clarity.
Emanuel God with us. In firefights of life and the serenity of the quiet chatter of lush forests, Emanuel is how I live in the already not yet journey day by day.
Please Father Lord over all continue to show me where the abolistionist, the preacher, the writer, the athelete, the spouse, the mother, the friend needs to fight this minute. On time to hear or speak with words of generosity, flourishing love, gratitude for the small and big.
Protect my heart from hardening Lord.
