One of Master’s recent updates included part of the lyrics to this song. Having never heard of the musician (Sufjan Stevens) i googled… and found the song. i also googled the artist and the meaning of the word, “Djohariah” (his actual sister, apparently). And then i had to look up “gloriole” because it didn’t ring … Continue reading

S/he said it better than I ever could
if i break the glass…
One of the things that i’m blessed with now is CHANGE. Odd to give that voice because i’m a control freak in so many areas of my life, but the change is good… there is value in the challenges it brings and the growth left in its wake. Part of me still craves the safety … Continue reading
open mind for a different view
I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams. W.B.Yeats i just caught sight of His picture on my phone and it took me to a quiet and warm place instantaneously. That feeling was suddenly replaced with a feeling akin to terror. i am given pause… sometimes… by the … Continue reading
Lord, Lift me up…
i do not question my choice to serve Master. There are days when i question how to do it, or how best to do it, but the decision was sound and i am pleased by it – and happy in it. i’ve been struggling with some of the more internal aspects; i find myself checking my ego, … Continue reading

She spoke of a Master she respected (one i respect as well) and how that Master spoke about how it was their task to make sure they helped slaves in their service… help them to be successful. That way of thinking is … Continue reading

Conquer me
Yesterday, Master corrected me in front of a group of people. He did not punish, He did not belittle, He simple corrected me. i do not like to be corrected… i wrote to Him later that i felt flushed at His words – uncomfortable at first. It took me a moment to accept them for … Continue reading

With every mistake we must surely be learning
i’m learning that the only way to deal with pain is to feel pain. i don’t like it, but i’m learning. “Every day I live I am more convinced that the waste of life lies in the love we have not given, the powers we have not used, the selfish prudence that will risk nothing and which, shirking pain, misses … Continue reading
