A New Dawn


I lift my gaze to the hills and I catch the sparkle of the sun as it glistens against the pupil of my eye. The rays of hope shone down upon me and I know there is no darkness that can keep me from shining… It is my season to shine.

I close my eyes and spread my arms open wide as the wind streaks through the curls on my scalp. Everyday presents an opportunity to conquer and I know I can always spread my wings and fly… I soar with wings as an eagle.

With five fingers on both hands stretched out across my chest, I breathe a sigh and smile. Contentment in my spirit is what I feel and it says that the heavens and the earths are fashioned to my favour. Such is the indomitability in which I dominate and subdue my circumstances.

I feel the imprints of my feet against the sandy shores of the ocean. My steps become a steady tempo that synchronizes to the beat of my heart. As many are the sands beneath my feet, so innumerable are the accomplishments that are and will be birthed from me.

Gentle trickles of rain outside my window I hear as it synchronizes to the gushing of my tears. But it’s not the rain’s semblance to the tears that counts but the purity of the joy it represents. This joy transcends any other emotion I’ve ever fathomed and I know I can never have a dull moment.

Ocean tides wash me knee-deep until I am threatened to be drowned and today I am drowning …… sinking deep, then even deeper …….. in the aura of God’s love for me. It’s not just a new dawn today but forever.
