Reconciliation
What a week! Or Month! But my prayers, worries, pleas to God finally came to a head on Friday. However, through the process of praying and searching, I had a breakthrough. At last! I’m not entirely done, I believe there is more, but I had enough of a breakthrough to get on with the reconciliation that I so desperately desired.
And how did that happen? Well, with a whole lot of prayers, writing, step work, consulting with my sponsor, BFF and others that care about me and my recovery. I also watched prayerful video’s, went to a bunch of meetings, bible study (where I ask for unspoken prayers every week) read meditations like crazy. I got on my knees; I did some fasting and praying. If it all sounds like a lot, like serious business, that’s because it was.
The whole matter was of the greatest importance to me and my broken heart. There was much of this issue that I did not understand, and I needed enlightenment. I searched hard, I was open and ready to receive whatever direction the Lord was to give me.
Just like my Poohbah incident in 2023, it led me to trust God on a much deeper level than I think I ever had. Of course, over these past forty years, I have certainly grown in my faith and trust of my God. I’ve had plenty of situations to put my faith and trust in God, my steps have led me to it, time and again.
But there are certain times and situations that are more hurtful or scary than other times. When it’s a deeper heartache, a deeper pain or uncertainty, then I go deeper. Deeper inward to where the Holy Spirit resides, to where my God can give me insight and direction. Deep inside for a spiritual breakthrough.
By the grace of God, I have had an awakening, but moreover, my prayer was answered in the reconciliation. That’s all I really wanted. However, God decided to put a cherry on top, He’s really cool that way. I would like to share the whole thing with you, but due to anonymity and keeping others identity confidential I cannot, but just know, God has a way, oh boy does He have a way, of sorting me out getting me back on track. He revealed things to me I was not even looking for, well wait, maybe I was, but nevertheless, I am amazed, grateful and humblized, one more time!
Question of the Week: Have you been praying for a reconciliation? How did it turn out?
