Brightness in delight

       Truly amazing what Jehovah uses to pull me
back up. This morning it was sleeping in, dressing
in a bright orange jacket, a song and a tiny chipmunk.

      Oh I am ever grateful to the chipmunk. Climbing
from my landing down to the pine straw over to the
cars. Hmm then to cross the street to sit finding
something by a neighbor's boxy vehicle. Then to
go rushing up their walkway to disappear up the
stairs there.

     Indeed I have found joy in the smallest creature
I saw today. Among them was a daddy long leg
spider. Recalling when I first learned of them, in my
grandparents' bathroom window sill.

   Still seated is a smile. Falling through a giggle. Ah
and to drink a hot cup of rooibos tea. A clarity opens
all senses. The views of majestic scenery sends
spurts of excitement throughout my soul, deep into
my spirit.

   Much is planned on my agenda yet I just hope for
two things to be completed. The knots inside to
unwind and flex. Just to finally be calm inside my own
skin today.

   Hmm my chipmunk is back. Seated mere feet from
me. So adorable. Thanking Jehovah for his kind gift.
The thought of bringing more light into my spirit.
Oh I am delighted I was given simplicity of the
radiant morning.

   So dear friend prepare yourself for those you may
meet today. I know my prayers will be held strong
for you. Ah indeed I hold prayers for myself but others
must come first.

   So excitement sits here as I rock out to a fun song.
Enjoying my tea and preparing myself to finish a
necklace for a client. Oh yes and some delicious
strawberries to bring on more giggles.

   So dear friend I only hope your day brings the
biggest smiles to hold over your face. For Jehovah's
holy spirit to bring words where a racing heart chokes.
I can only feel such splendor in my imagination for
now.

  One day it will be my turn. So shine. Be happy
and learn.
