Music...Reflect...Music...Reflect


As a very young child, I listened over and over to
"Music Box Dancer" performed by Frank Mills.  

As I listen to the song today, I am brought right back to the feelings that arose when I was a child.  The feelings of simplicity in such a large, complex world.  My life just ready to blossom and bloom right before my very own eyes.  What will I be?  Who will I become?  What will I do?  Who will come and go in my life?  What friendships will be treasured the most?  What friends and family will I gain and lose?  Will I be accepted for who I am?  Where is my journey going to take me to?  How many tears will be shed along the way?  How much laughter will be shared?  Will I get married?  Will I have any children?  Will I be happy?  What does this world have to offer to me?

And then there was a whisper in my ear from Him - communicating wisdom only He could share with me - wisdom to share with you. 

 "Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of
what we do not see."
Hebrew 11:1

"For you have been my hope, O Sovereign LORD,
my confidence since my youth."
Psalms 71:5

I no longer need to wonder - I know - I know that He has a plan for me and for you.  So, close your eyes and reflect on where you started and then where you are currently at - leave the future in God's hands for only
He knows what is in store for you.  

No longer be the caterpillar in the cocoon - 
become the butterfly and be set free.

God's Blessings,
Trish

"This is what the LORD says: "Let not the wise man boast of his wisdom or the strong man boast of his strength or the rich man boast of his riches, but let him who boasts boast about this: that he understands and knows me, that I am the LORD, who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight," declares the LORD."
Jeremiah 9:23-24
