Hold on for One more Day

I had a friendly passenger this morning as I drove to work.  The biggest, most scariest spider I had ever seen.  He traveled with me for 80 miles and did not loose grip to my passenger mirror. He then was swatted across Starr's parking lot, so now he has a new home lol.  What are the odds of him staying on there for 1 hour and 15 minutes?



It got me thinking metaphorically about being a survivor and holding on to dear life, even when it doesn't seem to bright.  What does it mean to you to have True Happiness? I am constantly searching for inner peace and balance as I am a scaled Libra.  A perfect blend of love, happiness, and joy.

 

Psalm 1 True Happiness

 1 Blessed is the one
   who does not walk in step with the wicked
or stand in the way that sinners take
   or sit in the company of mockers,
2 but whose delight is in the law of the LORD,
   and who meditates on his law day and night.
3 That person is like a tree planted by streams of water,
   which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither—
   whatever they do prospers.  4 Not so the wicked!
   They are like chaff
   that the wind blows away.
5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
   nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
 6 For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous,
   but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.

Pure poetry. There were comments made last night by a family member that made me angry.  Another, "mind your own business" type comment.  I realized the Devil was using those words to make me upset and speaking through the person. I opened my Bible and meditated on this Psalm.  We have no place in our house for Satan.  God has and continues to bless hubby and I, and I will not stand for any evil or rain on my parade comments or remarks.

All is better :) God if victorious again!  Inner peace wins!

Love,
Angela <3 <3
