Five Minute Friday

I'm back this week, I've missed these! (: Come join us! Today's Topic: Beyond. GO. This life I've been chosen to live? Far, far beyond my wildest dreams. I never could have imagined that I would love my life so much so many different times. I never thought I would conduct a band and be more proud of them than I ever have of anyone else. I never thought I would keep up with dancing for 14 years... and be good at it. I never thought I would appreciate my family so much for standing by me and loving me in spite of me. I never thought God would show up in the many, many ways He has. I never thought I'd learn the lessons I've learned through the rough times. I never thought I would be in the top 10% of my graduating class. I never thought I would be friends with some of the people who are now dearest to me. I never thought I would fall in love with music the way I have. I never thought God had that large of a plan for me. If God had left me to planning my own life, i...

I literally giggle when I realize that it is Friday. Finger painting time. Just write, just right. It's such a perfect day... Friday. It taste sweet in my mouth. Today's Topic: Beloved. Go.

I feel the arms wrap tight around me, holding me together. Tears continue to stream and I know that the pain is still there, but I am comforted. I bury my face into perfection and let out all my sorrow. He accepts, gives time, continues to hold with rapt attention. He cries, too. He's been there, this pain is familiar to Him. I eventually quiet to a snuffle, and He draws me back, cups my face in his hands. "Oh, little one. If only you could see what I see. If only you knew what I know. You must trust that I know what is truly and wholly best for this world, and the next. I will never giv...

Hello, dear one . Can I possibly have your ear for a moment? Or maybe even your hand? Or your arms around me as a hug? I desperately need someone today. Today has been difficult so far. I have gone to my well to drink, simply to find it empty. And I feel so hollow, so... just empty . Today is a tough one for me to get through, and I need you. Please come along side me. Please, don't let me face this day alone. And then I got my daily (in)courage email. And I am in tears. It could not have been more perfect, the words whispered straight into my heart. I wanted to cry. A drop of water on my oh so thirsty heart. It touched me so much today, that I want to share it with you. I hope maybe, just maybe, you need it, too. Forgive Did you know it's possible to waste away from a broken heart? I had heard this before, but never thought it was in fact, possible. I was wrong . As much as I wish I wasn't, I'm witnessing it happen to someone who I love dearly. She...
