Beautiful Mess

Sure, who doesn't embrace smiles and that feeling you get when everything is going your way. Don't you wish everyday could feel that way? For those of us who have chosen the path as the encourager ~ the cheerleader ~ they tell you that you still have enough energy to get to the finish line ~ they pick you up when you can't stand on your own ~ What do we do when we aren't having a good day? Is it ok to sulk and cry? Absolutely!

It's ok to let the Lord know you are having a crummy day ~ of course He already knows how you feel, but I think He gets pleasure out of hearing us share with Him how we feel. When we are weak He give us strength. I heard this song today and these verses really resonated in my heart:

We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful the mess we are
The honest cries of breaking hearts
Are better than a Hallelujah
.


A great reminder to me to be in the moment ~ feel what I am feeling ~ and be ok with it. Today, admist vertigo and headaches, I am trying to find a way to rejoice in the fact that I am alive ~ to feel this discomfort is to be human. :)
