the beginning of my 33rd year!
My Grandmother is bringing me to Matins this morning
for my birthday.
I can ask for nothing better.
Thanks be to God that He has given me another year;
May I seek Him in it.

Peaceful easy feeling, already on the ground
I woke up this morning - late! The sun was shining, my Cleo Cat was fussing and sure enough, I forgot to set my alarm!
I wish I could dscribe how I felt - had slept better than I had in a long while and felt quietly cheered. Like waking up when I was a child, peaceful and secure.
Worry is a big struggle of mine, which I am learning to battle in new ways. One of the prayers I prayed while walking to work when anxiety hit was
Lord, You are the Ground of My Being.
This prayer comes from my memory of the verses in Acts where St. Paul speaks of God in similar terms.
The Eagle's song came to mind as I woke up slowly in a sunlit light blue room, with my cat and Icon Wall near by. And I knew the only reason I felt a Peaceful Easy Feeling is because I am already standing on solid ground.
The Lord is the ground of my being.
