it’s only dangerous
at the end of the rope
if you let go
God
The Quarterback
Last week, Nathan was able to join the football team and played two games. The way it works here…practice Mondays and Wednesdays…games Tuesdays and Thursdays. Well, on Thursday, Nathan got a touchdown, but it wasn’t a “smooth” one.
At first, he bobbled the ball but was able to hold onto it and juked past the defense for a touchdown. Of course, I didn’t get it on video but recorded it in my mind, and as the memory made it’s way to my heart, God spoke to it.
It was the next day, and as we were driving along, the thought came to me: what has God passed you lately…not just me but everyone?
Being married…moving to Texas…at first, I bobbled the ball but was able to hold onto it, and after “juking” some darkness…made a touchdown.
Now, I’m back in line, ready for His next pass!
“Planted”
through difficulty
there’s light
but sometimes
you have to look for it
“Ready and Waiting”
here I am
send me
hear I am
send me
not knowing
where I’m going
but knowing
Who I follow
when nothing
makes sense
He makes sense
of it all
bit by bit
moment by moment
hour by hour
He has it all
where time doesn’t matter
He has it all
of what I’m willing to give
His has it all
figured out in His Presence
He has it all
and gives it back to me
Heaven invading
send me
here I am
send me
“Missed Emotion”
I’m somewhere inside
I can feel it
but I’m still somewhere inside
watching life happen
without living it
no longer a prison
yet a mist
haven’t found my way out
not yet
sometimes wanting
to be alone
sometimes
wanting to scream
sometimes
holding back tears
always looking
for laughter
a reason to laugh
that’s all I need
I wonder if God’ll tell jokes
“Set Up”
why didn’t I get to choose
from my mind
from my heart
why was it from God’s heart
I feel cheated
now
living in Texas
no friends
no laughter
no
dancing
yet
it’s my
forever
“Guarded Well”
whenever I feel “attacked”
I build a wall
for my protection
to keep people
out
the only problem is
it keeps me
in
last night
that wall came down
“Discovery”
I would never learn
from another woman
on how to be
a wife
I learn from God
“May 25, 2016”
some people only like to read articles
others only like to read poems
both reveal the heart
both let people in
if it’s written in the open
tomorrow my reality becomes real
tomorrow I’ll be married four months
tomorrow I get to see my husband
many of you know
how I fell in love in an instant
with my ex-husband
I flew out to Texas to surprise him
welcomed him into my heart
and we married three days later
he’s on his way to get me
driving from Texas to pick me up
he’ll be here tomorrow
no more waiting
no more missing
no more being-on-hold
my reality becomes real
in a more tangible way
with a hug
with a kiss
with a smile
