Good Morning!

On the radium journey it is now week 4.     6 days to go.

I am  thankful indeed for prayers, and more grateful than I can say that the undergirding Grace of God and His Presence with me has made this  a journey of both faith and LIFE.  Personally, a ‘zonked out’ lack of motivation is my biggest hurdle, and this can be very debilitating.

Once again in week 4 I asked the Lord to inspire my imagination and during treatment, journey with me.  (I told technicians what I was going to do and where I was going to go).    In so many ways it has been inspirational and even ‘fun’.     On a table there was a book with lots of recipes in it.  I flipped through. Then, in a Homes Section, I saw the  picture of a man’s study with an open door leading to a little pathway disappearing into the distance.   It had a caption ‘I can smell the surf while sitting at my computer’.

I looked at the image closely and told the girls as I lay on the table ready for treatment,  about the picture. They were intrigued,  and I shared later.     I began in imagination to walk down the pathway.    What will I see?   There were several small pebbled steps.   I began to count them…there were ten. A little sandy path meandered towards the sea….. I could hear it pounding in the distance.   (For two days that’s as far as I could journey).     Treatment was over and I had go.

By the end of the week I managed to get further.   I did not delay or count the steps.   On Friday I burst through the trees and saw an expanse of sand in both directions.     Most of all and this I know was pure imagination ………the sand was covered with shells.       It was a moment of absolute beauty and Grace.  Then, I had to get up, dress and start the journey home.   The image above is a very poor reflection of the scene in imagination but it gives a glimpse. One, more beautiful,  I did find on the internet may have been copyrighted I could not verify.

Divine LOVE is like that unmarked shelly beach.

I ask for all of you in this day and for this week ahead that you may know it in your lives like flooding rain.

We journey onwards.    Shalom!
