I’m missing Paradise! All the people, friends & loved ones. The familiar places, spaces & faces. We lived in a town surrounded by such glorious & magnificent God given beauty! Now it’s almost unbearable to drive through town. Because I know every time I do, it will be something different than it was on the day before yesterday. How do we replace this heartache with happiness? When do we start feeling that peace that passes all understanding? Our lives will never be the same! I’ve seen the look in your eyes, the sadness in your smile & the pain in your heart. We’re all trying to move on, but we’re feeling the loss that we all have lost. It don’t come easy, nothing ever does & this my friend is no exception. All those thing’s we’d wished to be different. If only I can, but I can’t & that’s a fact. We can’t go back to what was, but we can go on to what is. No it’s not the same & it never will be, but we can make a difference in making it better. We’re starting over again & I’m trying to be okay with that. I’m trying to keep my eyes on the One who’s got the whole world in His hands. When I give it to Him, I no longer have my world on my shoulders, but I have His peace in my heart. I know then, that I will be alright. I can, I will, I’m able, because God is able to work all things for good. I’m holding on to that now… 24 hours a day. 🌞
