Best Blessing

Some rooms were created to instill in us fear, yet the opposite existed.
After hours of anticipation, a warm welcome opened doors for me to come in.
As I blew my own trumpet, as panelists required, I confessed to the uncomfortabilty of self-expression.
Without further ado, a quick notice told of rejection to partake in the programme, but somehow feelings differed.
As if sent by the Lord himself, a message was delivered right that instant, giving light to a set disappointment though disappointment never came.
A sudden rise of compliments ~ what a change of events, left me in moments of awe.
Some rooms are meant to instill in us fear, yet that room set me free with more grace.

It’s never too late to receive a blessing ~ the best moments are in waiting
