fall into faith

As summer comes to a close... my oldest daughter is off to college, the room is empty and my heart is aching.  It is amazing how the pain from losing my mom 2 years ago has come back up in full swing.  My natural M.O. is to get distracted make myself busy and push the feelings down.... not today... i am going in deeper and sitting in prayer!  I am putting a challenge in front of myself and that is to stop and pray throughout the day... really stop.... breathe... sit in the lap of Christ and listen.  I will keep you posted as to how it goes.  So far, this morning I began with reading and meditating... I heard "Are you really trusting in my love?  will you fall into faith?  will you allow me to dwell inside your heart and will you feel me in every moment.... God is that you?  Yes I say with my head... now it is time to take the leap and say it with my heart.... May we trust and be inspired!..... remembering that the second coming of Christ is not a baby in the manger but the re-birth of Christ within each one of us!!!  God Bless us all!
