my favorite word

2020-09-25T05:26:00.005-07:00

You are a healing balm kind of person

big lips;

smooth stretched oleander

curving double-petaled acceptance

(and speaking of your heart,)

to kiss away insecurities,

embolden their recipients

You, treasuring intrinsic miracle

articulation never spoken but felt

alight again upon my cheek, in the wind

"...Mission – What happened to all the fun?
For some reason (called religion!) the church can become stagnant, irrelevant and boring. This is such a tragedy as the church is God’s number one means of bringing his love and healing to the world which is certainly not boring; in fact it is an adventure. And that is what mission is all about, being caught up on God’s adventure and finding your place in it. Once you understand mission like that, it becomes way more fun."

Life's a trip, all of its own accord. Who needs the drogas when you've got the Spirit to point these things out? Like have you seen light dancing in the river at night? Have you breathed exhaust and been grateful anew for all the clean air you've ever known? Please Lord, fill us; help us breathe You deep, deep.
Course through us; by Your grace, flow from us. Please help us know You; deep, deep.

How do you show your love?
Do you show your love?

I am not satisfied with breakfast until it involves something spicy; usually red chile, cayenne or hot sauce.

Magnolia

2014-04-16T17:22:00.003-07:00

Spring baby breathed two and a half minutes;

(one crying,
one gasping and the hesitation between)

frost crept lace-etched rosy pink to
given-up brown, whispered;
"I'll call you Magnolia."

we blinked it in,
eyelids the coldest heavy,

hearts taught to close before
lips
could fog
'thank you.'

This morning

2013-12-02T10:24:00.001-07:00

I slept in!
woke up to a cozy, warm room
had tea (two cups!)
made french toast.

I danced!

finally discovered John Legend.

It's only noon!

Thank you, God, for peace and life and love and your joyful Spirit who teaches us to savor and enjoy all of it.

I want to look back and think, "I lived this year fully;"
"I lived this season fully.
           I lived this month fully.
           I lived this week fully.
           I lived this day fully."

With all your help, God.

It's nice to have been made me. Thank God for slow, delicious mornings.

Autumn makes a baker of me.

Don't worry,

I will paint the possibility too beautiful for you not to change.

If you have trusted me to do it, I will do it.

This is indestructible, because it is built on me and not you.

"What gain has the worker from his toil? I have seen the business that God has given to the children of man to be busy with. He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, he has put eternity into man's heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end. I perceived that there is nothing better for them than to be joyful and to do good as long as they live; also that everyone should eat and drink and take pleasure in all his toil—this is God's gift to man."

Wow, this statement!

It's awesome dipped in very dark to bitter chocolate as a nibble with a demitasse of espresso--one of my favorite gustatory moments.

With so severe a helmet as this I could cycle into space.

"Meanwhile, the moment we get tired in the waiting, God’s Spirit is right alongside helping us along. If we don’t know how or what to pray, it doesn’t matter. He does our praying in and for us, making prayer out of our wordless sighs, our aching groans. He knows us far better than we know ourselves, knows our pregnant condition, and keeps us present before God. That’s why we can be so sure that every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good."
