When you get to that point where it feels good enough on the inside that you feel goosebumps on your skin, you know you have arrived. It may have been a long journey. Days, weeks, years...but you have finally arrived. Its the moment you realize its all been worth it. Every tear cried, every sleepless night, every breakdown, meltdown and moment of sorrow or pain...all for this very moment. You have arrived.
Not to take away from the journey and all you may have sacrificed since day one. The shut offs of everything you may have found pleasure in doing, but duty called. The cancellations you had to make to keep appointments elsewhere, or to self. The nights you would have rathered watch the game or do some shopping, or sleep, you didn’t...remember those moments. In them, you birthed discipline.
Lets not eliminate the times you were denied, overlooked, delayed, or ignored...you kept going. You kept fighting because you knew you had to or you would burst trying...congratulations. You have met dedication.
Which may have never had the moment to be experienced had you not made up in your mind that no matter what others said, or didn’t say, or told you, you relied on self. Kudos, you have identified commitment and perseverance.
Adhering to the blueprints you have created led under the direction of a spirit that dwells in you, you continue to set a mark...keep going.
Life may look ugly sometimes, but theres so much beauty in what God has given us, that it doesn’t make any sense to ignore it...reject it...and within this beauty lies a gift, specifically, for you. Whether or not you have identified the gift(s) is solely your responsibility and only God can lead you. After all, he’s omnipotent. This part may sound beautifully broken, but its the part that matters most.
If you know what it feels like to get a nod from God, confirming that what you are doing is what you should be doing...to make him a proud father...you understand this...you’re ahead of the game, your challenge lies in not letting go, or deterring, and if (and when) you do, knowing how to get back.
I attest to the fact that its a beautiful energy from your spirit...you whole existence smiles...cuz you have arrived.
Stay encouraged...its not finished…
Peace for the journey
