GLORIOUS

Ah the wonderful times when live is so blessed. You wake up and feel alive and all is perfect. It is nice when this lasts until after breakfast.

And it is truly wonderful when the same feeling lasts all day. Another truly cherished experience.

Unfortunately life doesn't give us this type of euphoria every day. It often doesn't last for more than a few seconds.

But when it does happen it is such a blessing. Still one can not make life based on this element.

We can savor the moments just the same. And what makes them even more precious is when we feel they come from God.

Providing we cherish them as gifts and don't act like they are rewards. That is when we can be challenged in our faith the most.

So much of life carries that type of element. Just full of routine and nothing else. No high spots or glamour. Basically mundane.

And no matter what we try it stays that way. Just a constant flush of sameness that makes life feel bland.

It is only natural to what to find the times when the harps sing. When we are lifted out of the shadows and feel God's light.

They are not always easy to find. But not impossible either. Just a time we have to savor when God opens the door.

And when they come we can rejoice. For they do take away from our problems to some degree.

At least in terms of how they impact us in the way we feel. The day may still seem dark. The world bleak, but if we enjoy the time then it is far less painful.

Which truly does bless if we give it the time an opportunity. But that is not when it means the most.

However it is what touches. And that will always make life more blessed. Sometimes we can find the joy more than others.

It all comes to the issue of listening. And that we do more some times than others. Providing we don't get too busy complaining to appreciate the times when we can catch the wind.
