sun. day.

"time's are a changin' everybody's waking up to the things they want to change. oh, oh to be with a better man."

salamonie
docks
sundrops like diamonds
breezes that are almost too sweet to taste
god calling
killing cockroaches
phone calls
sunny back porch gliding
kokomo
panera
zero items of clothing bought
door decorating
10 miles of intercession

pizza?
movies?
sleep?
mail?
cleaning?
laundry?
baking?
girlfriend time?

today.
lovely.
breathing slowly.

"if i said what i wanted to say, would you listen or throw it away? i'm crying out to jesus."

rest.

Rest in Me. When tired nature rebels it is her call for rest. Rest then until My Life-Power flows through you.

Have no fear for the future. Be quiet, be still, and in that very stillness your strength will come and will be maintained.

The world sees strength in action. In My Kingdom it is known that strength lies in quiet. "In quietness and in confidence shall be your strength."

Such a promise! Such glorious fulfillment! The strength of Peace and the Peace of strength. Rest in Me. Joy in Me.

My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest. Exodus 33:14

This is from "God Calling."

I want to rest in Him. I want to trust.

I want to dwell in His presence and feel it going with me.

I want to believe his promises.

I want to trust that he is going to prosper and bless me.

I want Him to fill up my heart.

oh god, please show up. please. please hold me.

please.

this is happening

"beware of any belief that makes you self-indulgent; it came from the pit, no matter how beautiful it sounds."

i wish there was more time to process the deluge.

i wish i was in a protected cocoon, away from all the harm and pain and outside...just wrapped up and safe, safe, safe.

i wish i felt 100% confident. about anything right now.

i'm scared of regress, i'm scared of returning to the emotions of a petulant child.
i just want to trust god's perfect will implicitly. wholly.

i'm seeking more than ever, desiring change more than ever, and i'm more confused than ever.

when will the peace that transcends all understanding grip my heart so fully that i just trust as a child?

my brain and my heart both don't really believe it is possible.

there are so many beautiful things all around, and they just make my heart ache with life, with the burden of being alive...there are so many things in my life that are good, are lovely....i want to dwell there, i want to be filled with the good and not the void...i wish there was something physical that could hold me. i wish the peace was visible. like, a box of peace dropped off from the fed-ex man...to rip open and feel such joy, to treasure each little moment of peace...

My Utmost for His Highest
By Oswald Chambers

self reliance is self destruction...

"Every element of our own self-reliance must be put to death by the power of God. The moment we recognize our complete weakness and our dependence upon Him will be the very moment that the Spirit of God will exhibit His power." Oswald Chambers

so busy on a tuesday, and still very tired from running in races and entertaining thoughts that demand examination...

i'm stunned by the mother's day cards that people stopped by to create yesterday...stunned...i am just so proud of those who took the time to live intentionally...really...love it...it is such an important way of living...and i love that these 100 are getting it...
