Enlightenment

I feel like I'm at a time of enlightenment right now. Maybe it's the daily meditations I've been doing or going to prayer group every Friday? Whatever it is, I'm having trouble with the "ordinary" folks in my life. The ones that are consumed by money, saving, jobs, superficiality. I have been seeing the deeper meaning of life lately- how our amazing bodies fuel and work, how our every breath depends on God, that everything we have can be taken away.
It's not that I don't crave those superficial things because I still get those pangs of jealousy when I see someone's new coach purse their husband bought or the Aruba vacation their whole family gets to go in. I'm trying to recognize my jealousy but then let it go. In all honesty- what I have been given as my gifts are amazing- a healthy son, a husband of The Lord that adores me, family that comes with quirks but would be there in the drop of a hat. All the material things we have are just materials, they won't go with us when we die and The Lord WILL take care of us thru anything. If a job was lost or money down to zilch. I have seen how God has kept us afloat in these hard financial years and given us little breaks through it. I think he is still just having me walk the road of trusting him- even when it is through other people. I thank God for the spiritual journey I am walking that is not as 'easy' as the superficial road most walk because this road is filled with such beauty and gratitude that its far more amazing and rewarding.
