This morning I went to the cemetery and sat in the chapel where mom's urn is in it's niche. I took my c.d. player with me and the new Donny Osmond c.d. which was just released this month. I didn't even know that Donny was putting out a c.d. and how excited I was that I "happened" to stumble upon while at Target! (Hey, don't laugh at my Donny!)
One of the songs on the c.d. which Donny co-wrote is "Whenever You're in Trouble" and one night I realized that it is God's message to me through Donny's beautiful singing voice! I also realized that I did not "stumble upon" this c.d. It was God's perfect plan for me to be in the music section and notice it, knowing full well that there was this special song with the words which He would speak so clearly to me.
While in the chapel, I sobbed while journaling my thoughts to mom and my heart ached because I've missed her so much lately. As I continued to journal and sob, that special song was being sung to me through Donny's comforting voice and it was God's assurances and comfort to me.
After more than an hour of sobbing and journaling, I drove home to find a small cotton-tailed bunny sitting still on our lawn. There used to be many cotton-tailed bunnies here where we live in the country but we have not seen any for a very long time.
Isn't it amazing that God would send this ADHD-like hyper bunny to "be still" on our front lawn when I came home from being so sad and wiped out from crying so hard. Not having seen any bunnies for a long time makes it even more amazing that God would send His messenger of nature at this particular time and in this particular way. Though I was emotionally exhausted, I sat in the car for a very long time so I could enjoy watching God's bunny messenger. I knew there would be journaling as a result of this miracle.
God always knows what it takes for me to "get it" and he continues to give me his message through the hyper creatures which he created. His hyper messengers of various sorts are sent to tell me to "be still." "Don't be hyper all the time or you might miss what God's message is."
God is amazing and he must really, really love me.
May your unfailing love be my comfort... - Psalm 119:76
