Sunrise Cafe

This is the beginning of a new season of life.

Like when the rays of light slowly unwrap the gifts of beauty

God has created for us, before the sun meets the horizon,

God is slowly unwrapping His gifts of my new life.

I am so happy.

Everything I have been praying for seems to be happening.

If the Lord wills it, He will fully unwrap them.

"Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows." - James 1:17

"Why you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, 'If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that.'" - James 4:14-15

Take it...

It's Yours

Thy will be done
For Your glory
Break the patterns
Take it all
This is my prayer

Two Weeks

Never seemed so long!

Hurry up time

so you can slow down again. :)

In moments like this...

I wonder which feeling is worse...

the one right now

or...

The one that might have been.

Then I remember...

This one is temporary

and that one would have been 'til death do us part.

~ Psalm 23 ~

Indescribable

Psalm 8

LORD, our Lord,

how majestic is your name in all the earth!

You have set your glory
in the heavens.
Through the praise of children and infants
you have established a stronghold against your enemies,
to silence the foe and the avenger.
When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place,
what is mankind that you are mindful of them,
human beings that you care for them?

You have made them a little lower than the angels
and crowned them with glory and honor.
You made them rulers over the works of your hands;
you put everything under their feet:
all flocks and herds,
and the animals of the wild,
the birds in the sky,
and the fish in the sea,
all that swim the paths of the seas.

LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!

Psalm 103:11

For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him

This makes all of this going on down here so significantly insignificant.

This is Halloween!

What is it like to be a Christian?

It is like being a pumpkin.

God picks you from the patch,

brings you in, and washes all the dirt off of you.

Then he cuts off the top and scoops out all the yucky stuff.

He removes the seeds of doubt, hate, greed, etc.,

and then He carves you a new smiling face

and puts His light inside of you

to shine for all the world to see.

I thought this was really cute. :) I love Halloween.

Beautiful Sunset

Time to tell me the truth
To burden your mouth for what you say
No pieces of paper in the way
Cause I can't continue pretending to choose
These opposite sides on which we fall
The loving you later as if at all
No right minds could wrong be this many times

My memory is cruel
I'm queen of attention to details
Defending intentions if he fails
Until now, he told me her name
It sounded familiar in a way
I could have sworn I'd heard him say it ten thousand times
If only I had been listening

Leave unsaid unspoken
Eyes wide shut unopened
You and me
Always between the lines
Between the lines

I thought I thought I was ready to bleed
That we'd move from the shadows on the wall
And stand in the center of it all
Too late two choices to stay or to leave
Mine was so easy to uncover
He'd already left with the other
So I've learned to listen through silence

Leave unsaid unspoken
Eyes wide shut unopened
You and me be
You and me always be

I tell myself all the words he surely meant to say
I'll talk until the conversation doesn't stay on
Wait for me I'm almost ready
When he meant let go

Leave unsaid unspoken
Eyes wide shut unopened
You and me
Always be
You and me
Always between the lines
