Rosie, one of our dogs, ruptured a disc a few weeks ago. Painful and limiting, I get a doggy stroller so she can still come on walks. Pushing the stroller with our other pup on leash is clumsy especially with my injured shoulder. I notice looks from other walkers that say “Oh, you are one of THOSE”. Today, it becomes a bit more awkward since my foot has become swollen and red from a bee sting I got yesterday. I don’t feel strong. At all. I turn down a street and a sudden wind comes against us and actually pushes the stroller against me in a lopsided fashion. For a moment I am overwhelmed with negative, frustrated thoughts until I quickly hear Your Voice. “What pushes against you today will actually become a wind that propels you forward in the future. Winds of adversity, when overcome in My Power, become winds of victory in your journey.” Suddenly, I could imagine a sweet breeze pushing me from behind as I humbly asked You to train me in these places and forbid me from turning away in frustration and self pity. It didn’t get easier but it did become meaningful and hopeful.
