To Overcome by Mary Bourne

What if...... What if you did stop and just spoke to that homeless person.? What if you put thr spare change in the collection box? What if you just stopped to say hi to the friend across the street? What if the elderly on the bus had your seat? What if the bad things that happen were because you made the wrong choice? What if the sickness was because original sin? What if the good was shinning greater that then bad? What if the world might have just had been created? What if you just prayed and then something happened? What if there was a God of love not of hate? What if you just stopped and thought that life has to have a meening? What if the love you feel actually was created by a God that loved us first? What if.......... (Before you settle on what you think, ask yourself what if...) 

Life for most of us  is a race to always moving on to the next thing on the to do list. I love a list and my family will find post it notes dotted around to make sure the day to day keeps ticking over. Sometimes tho you just need to stop and take time out. I love to have those salah moments. A time to stop, pause, and breathe. They do not happen as much as   I like but when they do, it's important to use the time wisely. I'm very good at sleeping! I can quite often sneak away and have a power nap, sometimes I need to be just still and think and listion than to full asleep! Within us all we have a inner soul.

If you find it hard to believe this just look around you and I promise you will find one thing that love is sparkling through. 

Nearly two years in remission :))). Time defentaly is a healer. I'm strong, happy, seeking new oppertunities and living the dream. I'm finding new things about my faith each day that blows my mind. We must always keep growing and learning. Never stand still keep searching for ways to bless and pour love out to others.  I'm still so very blessed to be working with some amazing people in my day job. Having a job gives you great oppertunities to get to know many different types of people, God makes us all so different and we must learn to accept and encourage one another. Be the one who gives that little bit extra and raise others up.  My heart still longs to worship my saving God. Day by day I see more of his love.
