I Walk the Line (in part)
written by Johnny Cash
As sure as night is dark and day is light
I keep you on my mind both day and night
And happiness I’ve known proves that it’s right
Because you’re mine, I walk the line
I keep you on my mind both day and night
And happiness I’ve known proves that it’s right
Because you’re mine, I walk the line
You’ve got a way to keep me on your side
You give me cause for love that I can’t hide
For you I know I’d even try to turn the tide
Because you’re mine, I walk the line
You give me cause for love that I can’t hide
For you I know I’d even try to turn the tide
Because you’re mine, I walk the line
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you’re mine, I walk the line
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you’re mine, I walk the line
For your consideration…
I am late today. I slept late and then got a call from my daughter to meet for brunch. I got home and them completely forgot…I never do that but I did today. Then I got up to do it and noticed a reminder on my phone that I was supposed to volunteer at my club. Yikes, what is up with me today?
I was a little surprised at the song that came in for today’s message earlier this afternoon. At first I thought this can not be right, but as I sat with it, it made perfect sense.
We are works in progress. We hear lots of messages about working on our life purpose. Why? Why is our purpose so important? Why do we “walk the line” towards it?
We do it for love. We do it for love of others, God and HOPEfully ourselves. Love keeps us on track.
That is the HOPE. And so it is.
Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take…
-Affirm..“I am loved.”
-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”
-Drink lots of water.
-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.
-Walk the line of love.
What made me smile yesterday…
-Fingers and toes done.
-A beautiful day.
-We had a message yesterday that I again had sat with before deciding it was right. Later that afternoon, I saw a Facebook post from another friend who had posted on Angels Teach. The message was the same. I love the synchronicity and affirmation.
-A good book.
Love, Blessings and Gratitude,
