Whoever planted in our brains that we could not have succeeded thought they had won the battle. What is so surprising and sometimes make us angry is that we believed it. Yes for a time we believed it. Yes …looking back we ask ourselves this question. How could that have happened to me? We still cannot believe it; but it did. We saw what they saw; we ate what they ate; we heard what they heard; we ever interpreted and and reasoned as they did. I do not believe it. How could I have allowed this to happen to me? I am not stupid. I am an educated person. I think it is true to say I was lost and in deep ’s**t.” No wonder the abuse! But today, I am found. Oh yes Lord! I found myself in you. You found me and gave me that opportunity, a purpose..way beyound my wildest dreams. It is a slow process but I know from deep within my ‘guts’ that every inch of progress I make is met with metres and kilometres of depth. So today, I rise from my slumber. I can still breathe! Thank God and so “I sing because I ‘m happy, I sing because I’m free, He’s eyes are on the sparrow….and I know he cares for you and me.” May God’s blessings descend on all of us as we continue our path of liberation here on this blessed earth!
