Everyday

I want to thank you, Lord

When I think I don’t know what to do next

You show me just what I need, and the peace and your love guide me.

I can’t help but smile and move through my day as if I’m floating on air.

To feel so free and right and know that if someone steps in my way, I will sidestep them and keep moving.

For I am unstoppable now, and I don’t want to go back as I let go of the last couple of days and just enjoy this day.

A day wrapped in your warmth and love, and I know this is the start I needed to come back stronger and wiser than before.

Daily Prompt: Tenterhooks

Tenterhooks something some used back in the day to hang their laundry and something some still do now.

Somethings you would think wouldn’t still be around but it is for some have grown up using them and why stop doing something if it worked for you then and it still works now.

You may have to make more trips outside because of the weather than you would have if you had a washer and dryer.

But, you enjoy the amount of time it takes to do this and it keeps you moving through out your day.

Something from the past that you not only share with the ones you love  but something you learned to do when you were little and something you cherish as you continue to grow up and live on your own.
