As I was shoveling snow from this Blizzard of 2010,it reminded me of

Post Cult Life in the early years.

The wind was non stop blowing with snow hitting you in your face like

someone had thrown ice cold water on your face over and over again

making it numb.

Your legs becoming numb as you walk through drifts 4 ft deep. The

numbness of it all reminded me while at the same time

I am bundled up in snow shoes,waterproof ski jackets and hat,but the

inside of the human like a machine repaeting the process

of removing layer upon layer of snow in the long driveway just to

notice as quicky as removed the drifts would reappear!!!!

You become tired quickly,your back from the physical bending and

scooping the weight of the packed overnight snow,and

meanwhile your still getting hit in the face by this force more

powerful than you are physically to move.

In one situation my son in laws car was in the middle of the street

with hazzard light on,in conditions of white out! We both

were shoveling like mad just to get the car in the driveway so it

would not get hit!

A neighbor came out to help us and we finally got enough snow out to

move the little Jetta car in with a Big Push and him

flooring the gas.

Got in the shelter of the warm house thawed and recovered.

Around 6 hours later (after a nap!) I went out to shovel again a path

,it was just as crazy as before and the darkness was approaching

quickly.

My husband got home around 4 hours late from his work in Maryland and

had went off into a ditch ,as did a State Back Hoe!

A good samaritain pulled him out,but the Back Hoe was still stuck.

This moring was the same scenerio getting OUT of the driveway.

This is what I felt like after Cult life. Make you wanna just stay in

the house and be warm,but if you want to live you gotta keep

going,keep shoveling the stuff out to get a clear path,over and over

again,in all seasons of life.

because it was for Freedom that Christ set you Free (Galations 5:1)

Courage

I have found the courage

I've always had

I found it in the fireplace of my soul

I found it in the salt of my tears

I found it in the beatings of my heart

And the struggles to exist

I found it in anger

I found it in peace

I found it in rage

I found it in darkness

I found it in light

I found courage in life

I found courage in death

I found it in your eyes

I found it in your smile

I found it in your touch

I found it in our child

I found it in the sunrise and the sunset

I found it in every breath
