Life Gets Hard…Look Up (#8)

August 10, 2012 By: Heather

Sometimes, life gets hard.  Sometimes, life gets stressful.  Sometimes…we wonder how we’re going to make it through another day.  And sometimes, we find it really hard to feel blessed and grateful for what we have.  And it is on these days, when it feels so hard, and so challenging to find good in the day – that we must turn our face to the sun.

Just like this.  Eyes closed.  Face up.  Feel it?  Feel the warmth and the light?  Feel the calm and the grace of all that is good in your life?  Now stop and listen.  What do you hear?  Do you hear your heart beating?   Do you feel yourself being grateful for the warmth on your face and the light in your soul?  Can you feel yourself being consumed with love?

This is when we realize we can make it another day.  This is when we realize that although we may have the toughest of days, that we are not alone.  And this is when we realize that in our darkest of moments, we need to look up.  And feel the warmth of the sun.  The grace of our life.  The beating of our heart.  And the love of our God.
