Words of my Heart

    Many times I start to write what's on my mind, heart, and spirit and as I watch the words form on the computer screen I grow anxious. Allowing doubt in and wondering what other's will think. What will they say about the changes my tribe and I are making? I go to bed at night and wake up in the morning with the same burning desire to share all that I'm learning. To run to the top of the nearest mountain and wake the sleeping souls with the Creator's blinding light.

    Sometimes I hesitate to write because I feel like no matter the combination of words I choose, it'll fail to describe the joy and freedom we are finding in our healing journey. "This healing is on a very deep level. First, since your higher self is one with God, you'll find that your healed relationship with God extends to a better self- relationship. You'll feel happier about who you are, because you'll truly be loving your self as you love God." (Angel Therapy by Doreen Viture) As I seek physical healing from this invisible illness I have been overwhelmed with healing in all other aspects of my life. My marriage, it's only a year old what could be broken? Well, when your first year of marriage becomes consumed with sickness it's difficult to focus on anything else. I use to feel so beautiful in my own skin. What happened? I'm only 24, I shouldn't feel this way. Well, when you become a skeleton of your former self you have to be taught how to love y o u again.

    You see, after almost 2 years of unending doctors' visits, hospital stays, and ridiculously expensive test I was broken and something had to change or my whole world was, seemingly, going to fall apart. I had been feeling things stir in my spirit, these thoughts about really treating my body as a temple. Sleepless nights wrestling with taking responsibility of the health of my tribe. Even so far as dreams about creating a simplified, healing environment. I suddenly felt like God was shaking me awake. He has given us all of His power, the power to heal, to love unconditionally, after all we were made in His image. 

    I honestly feel like my spirit was awoken over night and since then I have been an eager child ready to learn all their Apprentice will teach. My thoughts and feelings are shifting to a new perspective. It's a beautiful journey to walk hand-in-hand with my husband and our Lord and Savior. Working on becoming more comfortable about sharing our experiences. I know what God can do and I pray that my tribe will continue to grow into a bright light in this darkened world.
