Soaring Above Old Fences

I didn't think I could top two attacks within 15 hours, but true to myself, I found a way to out-due myself once again.  Last night, Japh camped out in the living room with me again and I was so lucky to have such a mellow little brother with me.  I was able to wake him up around 1 AM and he took very good care of me during the whole attack.  He also went and woke up mama and papi.  When I started feeling my attack coming on, I was in complete disbelief.  I thought to myself, "This can't be happening; there's no way I could have another one."

THREE ATTACKS WITHIN 20 HOURS.

Every attack makes my whole body so sore and weak, and to have them over and over again, it only made it hurt worse during each subsequent attack.  Despite all of this, I surprised myself with how well I handled the attack mentally.

You never know what you're capable of doing until you're pushed to your limits.  Even during the third attack, I was given strength from a place much deeper than I'm capable of reaching on my own.  I know that my Heavenly Father gave me the mental and emotional strength to endure my physical trial.  For even during the worst of it, I was surprised by the realization that I could not only handle three attacks back-to-back, but that I could handle more.  I was pushed past what I believed to be my limit only to find the fence-line 20 yards further ahead of me. 

What a beautiful gift I have been given.  So many people go through life believing what they're capable of to be so much less than what it truly is.  They see their field of possibilities and capabilities to be a much more harnessed and arid land than what it actually is.  But there is One who sees the fertile, flowing fields within each of us.  Unfortunately, we humans don't gain this sight until we reach a point in our lives where we can no longer keep going on our own power and will.  We can never see this beauty until we are swept up by angels sent from Heaven to carry us to higher place, for the beauty of our fields can only fully be embraced from a bird's-eye view.  We can never see the great work we're capable of doing when we're caught up in pulling the weeds or planting the seeds.  Though these acts are incredibly important as they are multiplied together to create our own little wonder.  I know there is a beauty within all of us that is beyond magnificence, and it is my prayer that everyone might have the blessing of the freedom that comes with a First Class Flight.
