While unexpected change opens you up to uncertainty, it also opens you to the possibility that after everything you have been through, there is more ahead of you.

If you are in a tangle of emotions after a disappointment and you are trying to stay positive and look forward while also grieving what was lost, just know that this is all a part of being human. And as hard as it is right now, it does not make you any less worthy of the good experiences that are still possible. There might be some moments of life where it feels like the only thing you are seeing are shadows, but even shadows are only able to exist because of the light casting on an object.

The light hasn't disappeared.
Beyond the shadows, light is still there.

More tomorrow...
Sincerely,
Morgan Harper Nichols

Me: Hey God.

God: Hey John.

Me: I'm falling apart. Can you put me back together?

God: I would rather not.

Me: Why?

God: Because you aren't a puzzle.

Me: What about all of the pieces of my life that are falling down onto the ground?

God: Let them stay there for a while. They fell off for a reason. Take some time and decide if you need any of those pieces back.

Me: You don't understand! I'm breaking down!

God: No - you don't understand. You are breaking through. What you are feeling are just growing pains. You are shedding the things and the people in your life that are holding you back. You aren't falling apart. You are falling into place. Relax. Take some deep breaths and allow those things you don't need anymore to fall off of you. Quit holding onto the pieces that don't fit you anymore. Let them fall off. Let them go.

Me: Once I start doing that, what will be left of me?

God: Only the very best pieces of you.

Me: I'm scared of changing.

God: I keep telling you - YOU AREN'T CHANGING!! YOU ARE BECOMING!

Me: Becoming who?

God: Becoming who I created you to be! A person of light and love and charity and hope and courage and joy and mercy and grace and compassion. I made you for more than the shallow pieces you have decided adorn yourself with that you cling to with such greed and fear. Let those things fall off of you. I love you! Don't change! Become! Become! Become! Become who I made you yo be. I'm going to keep telling you this until you remember it.

Me: There goes another piece.

God: Yep. Let it be.

Me: So...I'm not broken?

God: No - but you are breaking like the dawn. It's a new day. Become!! Become!!
