When we’re hurting

I woke up this morning paralyzed by pain. I had no desire to move, but my will isn’t connected to my brain. So I pushed through until I felt the strength to move again. Being a woman of faith, I already knew what to do. Prayer was my Starter and praise was my fuel. I was instantly lifted. Jesus once again saved me in my dispair and carried me through. In auto pilot I went to work, still working on mending the traces of my hurt. Music is my go to, my job allows me the freedom to. So I listened to uplifting, spiritual tunes, by the end of my shift my soul was shining like brand new. In my hour of darkness and moments of dred, this scripture is the one I rotate in my head, psalm23. “He makes me lie down in green pasture, he leads me by the still waters, he restores my soul ” in this I am renewed, and reminded it is my faith in my heavenly father that mends my wounds and makes the brokenness become whole. Faith is the anchor to my soul.
