A Bold Beginning

Such a bold beginning in July.
Sometimes I feel like a fish in water…where I can’t see myself…and I want too. It is nice to have a pelican sit on the surface of the water and say…”hey, you’re a fish. I like fish.” Today I feel grateful for the pelicans in my life.
I believe in God. I believe one day He will ask me if I honored the gifts that are inherent in my eternal identity. He will say to me, “Did you spend time doing the things you love? The things that made you feel happy? Purely Joyful?” I want to say “Yes.”
The fruit of responsibility is the ease of believing in my self worth, it is also my happiness.
I have learned the fruit of honoring the gifts and talents related to my eternal identity is Pure Joy. The moments I live that joy seem full of light, truth and the time seems endless….is this Eternal Life? Laughter comes so easy, insights are abundant and clear, giving and receiving so fluid. Today I also feel grateful for those places in my life that allow me to be my eternal self, it feels so good to be reminded of who I am….a fish in water.
