I wonder what
‘it is finished’ meant
hmmm
let me take a stab at it
‘it is finished?”
whether you believe it
or not
believing doesn’t change the truth
believing establishes it in your mind
and it IS finished

there’s no sadness in leaving
yes I’ll miss friends
even those who aren’t there
but there’s no sadness
my heart’s become full
in following His will
God’s trusted me with little
so look out!
I don’t battle my soul
His Spirit has won
MY spirit has won
now my soul has someOne
to answer to
when you become a Christian
things around you won’t be perfect
but the heart inside you will be
which makes everything around you
“different”
you become LIGHT
instead of lost in darkness
you become Love
instead of obsessed with lust
you become Peace
instead of connected to drama
you become Hope
instead of drowning in fear
there’s so much more
than just believing
it’s a transformation
from one life to the next
some times
you know as you’ve learned
other times
you learn as you go
and some times
God’s greatest designs
are revealed through mistakes
everyone has a different “normal”
what they’re raised in
what they’re used to
and I wonder
how much that “normal”
hangs on
if a child is raised around screaming all the time
will that child become an adult who screams?
if a child hears a lot of cussing
will it become part of their vocabulary?
it could
but it also doesn’t have to be
I believe parents
teachers
coaches
and the like
who are creating an environment for children
should carry themselves well
regardless of their past
growing up
involves learning the difference
between right and wrong
and choosing right
but then it comes back to “normals”
maybe wrong IS right
I used to cuss all the time
scream at my kids
slam doors through the frame
my kids’ “normal”
but I changed
I hope others change too
all it takes is for one to change
to make lifetimes of different
there’s a quiet place of the heart
unseen by man
but known by God
where requests are never made
but desires are known
and answered
where a thought becomes a prayer
because it came from the heart
when His Spirit lives in you
there’s always communion
know it
seek it
learn it
live it
do you know what an honor it is
to be Scott’s wife?
what a privilege to be one
unto death?
a covenant
commitment
a lifetime of one
words swim in my heart
amongst the tears
as to what this means
to me
to God
to Scott
oh what a blessing
to be awake
to be alive
to love well
forever
it’s funny how tears flow
sometimes inside
sometimes sideways
sometimes all over the place
somewhat like rain
sometimes there’s warning
but other times
the skies are blue
the sun is out
and rain just falls
