"Indeed, if we consider the unblushing promises of reward and the staggering nature of the rewards promised in the Gospels, it would seem that Our Lord finds our desires, not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased." -C.S. LewisHeart... it keeps our eyes searching for the light we can't always see

Simply Nothing

Heart...

Life is full of hill, mountains, boundaries, whatever!!  It's like a game.  To elaborate... It is like a game of pool.

All starts off in order.  All the balls where they are supposed to be.  You only have to do one thing, break them up.  That is when the chaos starts.  Now it is the time to search.  To search for the best shot that will lead you to a victory.  This shot might not seem like a lot, but if this shot is the wrong one then all your hopes vanish.  You take it... It's not over now though!  Time for another shot.  This time there is more than one opportunity.  Which one do you choose?  The one that is guaranteed or the one that is risky, but yet SO very exciting.  As soon as that choice has been made then you have to start over again.  Which one?  Which path?  Do you take the shot of ease, or of slim chances.  Shots are made, shots are missed, but no matter what.  All of them WILL make it to their destinations, but the win might not always be in your favor.  What do you do?  Sit and stare at a blank table of cloth wondering what you should have done?  Or do you just rack them back up and start it again?

What does heart have to do with any of this?  You might hope to have the easiest game in the world with the best shots, and the best decisions.  Sometimes it might happen, but chances are sometimes you'll slip.  Is this reason to put the pool stick up forever.  NO!  

Now relate this to YOUR LIFE!!!!  If you don't reach those points in your life where you question all that you are and have been then how will you EVER find out who you are to become?  If you don't walk in the valleys then how will you know how good it feels to sing on the mountain? 

Heart is the strength inside our being that gives us the courage to take the shots that are questionable, to rack the table up again when all was lost, to dig our way out of the valleys to see what light looks like again, and to find our way to the mountain top and sing forever. 

Heart... it keeps our eyes searching for the light we can't always see...

Illuminate

I remember what light looked like...
How I used to search for it with all that I am, and how I danced like tomorrow was so far away.  I keep asking myself why?  Why does it have to be like this?  Why does the this darkness look so fitting... Why do tears fall then be forgotten?  Why must I awake then sleep once more?  Why do I turn my back on my path long enough to get lost again?  My mirror of gazing is some way not showing where my lost heart is kept.  Was it stolen, or did I give it!  Blindly beaming, and pleasantly misleading is what I've become.  How can freedom's song ring in my ear again when I've been deafened from all I've been?  The lines have been crossed... the love I had now tossed... My cries reflecting back!  BLANK STARES WANTING TO SEE!!!!!!!!  Why CAN'T I LOOK!!!!!!!!!!!  WHY CAN'T I SEE!!!!!!!!!  Get up!!!!!!!!!!!  GET UP!!!!!!!!!!  GET UP AND FIND PEACE IN THE ARMS OF THE ONE WHO MAKES IT POSSIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"O Lord, do not rebuke me in your anger or discipline me in your wrath. Be merciful to me, Lord, for I am faint; O Lord, heal me, for my bones are in agony.  My soul is in anguish.  How long, O Lord, how long?  Turn, O Lord, and deliver me; save me because of your unfailing love.  No one remembers you when he is dead.  Who praises you from the grave?  I am worn out from groaning; all night long I flood my bed with weeping and drench my couch with tears.  My eyes grow weak with sorrow; they fail because of all my foes.  Away from me, all you who do evil, for the Lord has heard my weeping.  The Lord has heard my cry for mercy; the Lord accepts my prayer.  All my enemies will be ashamed and dismayed; they will turn back in sudden disgrace."
Psalm 6

Let Love in

OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!!  TWO POSTS IN ONE DAY!!!!!!!!  Mainly because the last post came across the wrong way...  I didn't write it to get affirmation that people like me through a pityful post.  Thank for those who said those things, but I just wanted to stimulate your brain cells a little bit, haha!!!  I guess I did it in the wrong way.

I have been taking leaps in my faith lately and it's very exciting!!!  I got to the point in my life to where everything seemed so understood.  I knew that I loved cool grass on a warm day, I knew that I loved to see smiles, I knew I loved to worship with all of my heart, I knew that I loved to talk to someone to find out what their passion is and where it is kept... I KNEW all those things, but I didn't practice them... The weather lately have been absolutely stunning!!!!!  I had the opportunity to lay down in the cool grass the past two days for a good hour and a half.  PRETTY MUCH... Amazing!!!
Just those little actions has stimulated something in me making my faith like a childs.  I am beginning to be amazed my little things that I walk past everyday... All it took was one glance from a different perspective.  Hmmm... when is the last time you laid in the grass on a warm day?  When is the last time you have looked at this beautiful world from a different perspective?  When is the last time you saw a new sight of God?  When is the last time you were AMAZED in HIS presence?

Not All Who Wander Are Lost
By Chris Thile

19 years ago from tomorrow I came into this world...  It makes me wonder if I have taken EVERY step I should have to taken to give other people reason enough to celebrate my being here.  What makes this day any different than any other?  hmmm... Will people celebrate with you on your birthday just because it's a party, or do they thank God for you being here?  It is something to think about... I hope that everyone looks at EVERY day as a special day of celebration.  That will just build the excitement of the AMAZING days of Eternity when we see HIM face to face!!!
