Dandelions

by Deborah A. Bowman

The sun upon the golden dandelions makes me glad to be alive!

I know now that in spite of everything I will survive.

God has intervened and immense power he does wield.

I know that the Universe will finally let me heal.

I believe in miracles, and I’ve helped so many others.

Why not let go and free myself to help another … me!

“Healer, Heal Thyself!”

“Empath” let go of sadness!

I will surround myself with joy and gladness.

Deep breaths of healing white light

Will dispel the fear and dark feelings that hold on so tight.

Yes, I believe in miracles definitely.

Why can’t one small miracle be me?

That would give me the strength to go on

To give to others what I have found.

That is what I’ve always believed

That is my heart, my soul, my personality.

The wind caressing the dandelions is bliss!

Now all I have to do is make a wish!

Make a wish and God hears every word!
Make a wish and God hears every word!

  1. I believe that the universe brings us to what we need.

    These words have drawn me back to my source and refreshed my faith:

    “Yes, I believe in miracles definitely.
    Why can’t one small miracle be me?
    That would give me the strength to go on
    To give to others what I have found.
    That is what I’ve always believed
    That is my heart, my soul, my personality.”

    1. I’m so glad my words resonate with you. But I am but a vessel used to share these thoughts coming to us all from the greatness of the supreme power that cradles us in love and understanding.

  2. I am sitting beside you in a similar situation. My faith keeps me going and the prayers of loved ones and friends. Hang on my friend as you have inspired me to not give up. The treatments I’m getting now are so strong that they overpower me, draining me and depleting me. Keep your eyes on God and your strong faith. I do believe in miracles. We both need one and they will come eventually.

    1. Belief will turn “eventually”” into soon! But it is discouraging when the meds make you feel so sick. Just had my chemo injection this a.m. Yuck! But we must laugh and I shall … as soon as hubby quits shaking the bed. lol

  3. This is so beautiful.
    Sometimes we need to stop and just take a moment for ourselves. Be blessed and may God’s love warm you on your path to healing.
