Embracing Our Journey

What if we could embrace our healing journey with joy?
What if we could face our healing journey with greater faith? 
What if the key to healing deep wounds is to say,
"I am grateful I have what it takes to heal from this through God's grace"?
What if we were able to acknowledge the roller coaster we are on
and say "I will enjoy the highs to the fullest
and I will practice allowing joy to enter my heart
in the midst of hardships"?

The joy that I will allow to enter
shall come from the knowledge
that all is well and all will be well.
The joy that I will allow to enter
shall come from the knowledge
that my path is meticulously guided.
I will remember that God's grace is always at hand.
I will remember that I am one with God
and that as I walk hand-in-hand with Him,
I shall not lose my way.

With all of this sweet knowledge,
I shall be able to move through my troubles
with grace, peace, and joy still in my heart.
With all of this sweet knowledge,
I shall be able to move through my roadblocks
with greater faith and courage.
I shall be able to surrender my sorrows to God
whenever they show up at my doorstep again.

If we play our cards right,
we don't have to view our healing journey
in a negative light.
We could find joy in the midst of our tears;
We could find peace in the midst of our fears;
We could find God's grace in the midst of our grief.
