went to enchanted rock today. great place, i love it. hadnt gone before. went with a friend that needed time to walk around while she talked things out. i am in awe of the beauty God lets me in on, and that he gives to me. like a truth she spoke over me. she told me something about myself that i seriously have never known. that i see the beauty in things that arent beautiful, or where the beauty is hard to find. that i find the loveliness in people whereas she would only be repulsed by their horrific personality- or lack of it. she used more words, but i was so blown away, i could hardly stay present. ::is this really me?!::
i forced myself to stay present; shes a safe friend. andshe loves mem, and wouldnt hurt me. i allowed her to see my joy in recieving her words, and let her know i had difficulty holding them.
i have to say, i thank God that he gives me grace now to love myself. to love what hes created and fashioned. mostly- most of the time:)
it helps to agree with him, that he makes beautiful stuff, when im out in his nature.
WHOA!
we are in agreement with the Lord, and see through his eyes, when we are walking in his nature! his character!
swweeeet.
found some lovely words in some shops on fredricksburg, wished tim was in my pocket so i could ask him what some german stuff meant. had some reallly good pizza at the brewery. laughed a whole lot with linds k. it felt good to really laugh.
hope beyond all hope, hope with probable pain at the end, is better than no hope. hope is my anthem.
and theres nothing to the phrase "false hope" - at that point it has ceased to be hope,and is just deception in the presence of blatant truths.
I actually do come in a mini pocket size, but he's not as witty.
ReplyDeleteI really dig this sentence:
"hope beyond all hope, hope with probable pain at the end, is better than no hope. hope is my anthem."
