There’s something in the moving way she’s standing still. As if bowing her head in reflective prayer, she’s consciously drifting into a place where there is no other. Her long wispy hair, blowing in the cool night wind, is caught by a gentle breeze. It softly catches her breath. She wears a blissful smile, as she gathers her inner thoughts & deeply ponders the wonders of what could possibly be. Life does that, makes us reflect upon ourselves & examine our motives. It probes those aspirations, till we can firmly see a clear direction. Unanswered questions grasp a hold & take control of those random choices, simple tasks & man made plans. The unmarked road is not always easy to know, which destined path is best to go. Sometimes we fly on a broken wing & silent prayer; unsure of what to do, where to go, or how we even got here! The simple answers to life’s difficult struggles & unpredictable changes, are never found easily, without complete honesty & humble searching. It’s time to stop, take a deep breath, cease the somber moment & sincerely reconnect. As we take a knee, let’s say a heartfelt prayer to reach the gates of heaven & quietly listen, to the One who touches our wounded soul & heals our broken heart. The rest of the story has not finished, it has barely begun! Let us have ears to hear as we gain our bearings, cast our sorrows & learn to trust in this time of Reflecting.
