truth eleven.
Written by: Candi Cylar
And just like that….another season in my series called life. A good season, I may add. Today, I can’t help to reflect on the goodness of God. The favor on my life. The fulfillment of prophecy and so much more to come.
Honestly, I haven’t felt like writing much lately. Can’t really explain it. Sometimes the words are all caught swirling in my head and never make it on paper. I am often in my head and sometimes in my heart but being in the Spirit is so much better. The thinking leads to thanking when you stay in the spirit.
When I say this past year has been amazing, it has. Yet, there have been some disappointments, yet I am thankful. There is often a smidgette of time that I get stuck on the disappointments but if only I stop and think of the many, many blessings, the good always outweighs the bad. As I sit at the beach today, watching the waves crash against the rocks, I am grateful. You know life is like the ocean. It comes in waves. Horizontal. Vertical. Sometimes clockwise. Sometimes anticlockwise. Some waves are calm subtle motions and others come crashing with all the force of nature. Some waves come with a large curve and others with a nice roundness to it. With every wave, there is an expected end. It calms, slowly falls back to do it all over again. Life.
Riding the waves hasn’t been so hard. Well, sometimes harder than others. My fear of water literally takes over sometimes which makes it difficult to navigate. Such as life, we can’t allow fear and disappointments to distract us during this journey.
So today I am thankful for life, my “right” mind, a roof over my head, a pot and a window, an amazing family that loves me and supports me, an amazing circle of friends, acquaintances, and colleagues that help me to strive to higher heights, for my creativity, my anointing…thank you, God. I thank God for the lessons learned, the lessons that hurt, the lessons that bring immediate joy, and those I am still learning.
Happy Birthday to me.
Stay tuned for the next episode…
