Perfect Vulnerability

When I was a little girl, I got the above picture from a Thrifty drugstore.
For some reason, I have treasured it all these years. When this month's topic came forward, I knew I had to share it.
A week ago yesterday, I had a total abdominal hysterectomy to remove a mass doctors believed was in my uterus. Besides a 3 night hospital stay last month (when I found out about the tumor), the only other hospital stay I have experienced was when I had a hernia as a kid.
I went into surgery feeling clear,
ready to release anything that was no longer serving me.
I trusted I was in good hands with God and the surgical team.
After surgery, I was still feeling giddy and enthusiastic about everything.
This felt like a new beginning for me.
The next morning my doctor came in and gave me some unsettling news.
While in surgery, she was surprised to discover the cantaloupe-sized mass was actually in my right ovary, not my uterus.
As I sit here waiting for news that could potentially change everything, I am reminded that the way out is IN. The way in is sitting with the unknown, sitting with all the feelings, sitting with over-thinking it, sitting with the messiness, and with learning to trust and flow with whatever the 'God plan' is.
I've come to realize that it doesn't matter how we arrive,
for we will each arrive one day.
And upon our arrival, we will know true love and belonging.
I am knowing this now.
At least in this very moment.
Poem: "A Divine Invitation"
You have been invited to meet
The Friend.
No one can resist a Divine Invitation.
That narrows down all our choices
to just two:
We can come to God
dressed for Dancing
or
be carried on a stretcher
to God’s Ward.
