Sunshine Kisses

I recently broke up with my long-term boyfriend. While this decision was not mine and came unexpectedly, I am sure in the long run it is for the best. Yet, getting through the pain of the loss seems unbearable at times.

I am grieving for the loss of not only my lover, but for my best friend. However, in the midst of my sadness, God has once again proven himself faithful. Today I was in the midst of a full-blown pity party.

I was having a flashback to a time when I needed an extra boost of confidence. My boyfriend had taken each of my palms, kissed them, and closed my fingers around them. He told me that I could open up my hands any time that I wanted to receive his loving, supportive kisses.

This memory caused me to cry. But as I was reflecting on this with sorrow, God’s gentle voice reminded me that all I had to do for never ending support was to turn my palms up and have the sunshine that he created just for me kiss my palms. He reminded me that he is the lover of my soul without fail. He reminded me that he would never leave me, no matter what. I am happy.
