Coming into Spring

New days are here,
renewed hope and faith.
Possibilities are endless
if only we believe.

Cast a vision,
do not let it sink.
Keep it always before you,
and continue to move ahead.

We have the strength of the Master
leaning on him always,
listening and watching,
for our next command.

He is forever faithful,
as we give Him our "Yes."
He will do mighty things,
on the road to His victory!

MYSTERY

The heart knows it's own adventure,
and the mind is an alien to it!  

The longing of the heart which 
makes no sense to the mind.

Acceptance is 'key' here,
but creates it's own challenge.

Prayer is the only answer
in times such as these.  

Asking the Maker to reveal
His perfect plans in His time.

Selah.

SURPRISE!

It sneaks in when one is unawares.
There is no explanation for it.
One cannot understand how and when it happened.
One simply finds it there and is helpless to remove it. 
                                            LOVE

JOY COMES IN THE MORNING!

Sometimes, we must allow ourselves the sleep and the rest that we need.
Sometimes, it can feel as if we are sinking lower and lower into a black hole.
Sometimes, it's ok to go there because we are never alone in it, God is there.
Sometimes, it's necessary to go there so that we can come up again into Joy!

Realization

What do you do when you realize
you do not mean the same to someone
as they have meant to you?  

You keep swallowing and swallowing
the pain and disappointment but it still 
continues. We all have a threshold. 
,
For someone like me it's very hard to 
not pursue, initiate and fix.  It's part of 
who I've always been.  I need to drop the ball.  

You see when we do that, we really get clear
vision as to the desire of the other person.
Or maybe they're just used to us holding it together.

I don't feel honored, in fact I feel very much the opposite.
It's time to talk.  They don't have to like what I have to say,
after all, they're only feelings, they're not facts.  

My feelings represent my heart and that matters to God, 
despite how it effects the other person.  I don't live for their
acceptance and approval but for God's.   He cares.  

Father, please lead me to the right words and the right timing.
This is not an accusation but simply an expression of my feelings.
I thought we were each other's best friend, but I guess not.

Home

Can we find a home within ourselves?  
Can we find the love of God within our hearts?
No matter where we are, we need to aim for finding
a place to call home within our own lives.  

The biggest challenge is looking within ourselves
and touching the deepest pains of our life.
We spend our lives running and running as if we 
could escape it.   The healthiest thing is actually facing it.

We need to have a very strong foundation to not cave in
to peer pressure all around us.   We need to hold onto our
unique person in the midst of the pressure of mainstream
society putting the crunch on to assimilate.  

There is just one of each of us, so it is critical that we do not
succumb to conformity and betray the individual God has 
created within us for His Glory and purposes.    We must stand
strong in this fallen world and hold on tight to our Savior.  

God has designed such a beautiful creature in each of us, 
and we truly need to embrace who that is, at all costs.  
"I shall not die but I shall live to see every purpose of God 
fulfilled in my lifetime!"   To life - L'Chaim!
