Hello everyone. I finally completed yesterday’s marathon challenge with my scheduled evening hospital treatment. Now I’m awake, and preparing to get up before too long. At 9.15 a taxi will pick me up and take me to Liverpool Airport, ready to fly home. The week has seemed to last an age and has tested me pretty thoroughly, but I’ve survived, and learned a lot. Above all, I’ve realised that speaking straightforwardly and honestly about my fears makes them much easier to manage than struggling to conceal them, for fear of being judged.
I’m deeply tired, but plan to end the week’s agoraphobia challenge with a final diary entry this evening. Then I’ll go back to blogging once each day, as usual. Meanwhile, here is today’s morning prayer:
In honesty
Speak the truth in love (Ephesians 4:15; NLT).
******************************
Lord,
In honesty
With self,
And you,
And others,
Lies freedom,
Healing,
Joy,
And inner peace.
